If saving some green while you take steps toward going green at home is important to you, you might want to consider geothermal heating and cooling.
Here are 5 facts you need to know about using renewable energy to heat and cool your home:
- Keep your money to yourself: With a geothermal system, you might see your utility bills drop between 30-70% this year.
- Install it and forget it (almost): A geothermal system is known to require less maintenance (and that means lower maintenance expenses!) than a traditional gas, oil, or electric systems.
- Geothermal systems don’t use fossil fuels at all: There’s no combustion in a geothermal system, which means zero risk of carbon monoxide poisoning, toxic fumes, or explosions.
- No greenhouse gasses here: Geothermal systems only need a little bit of electricity to run and rely on the earth and sun for their power to heat and cool your home.
- Hot water to boot: Your geothermal system can even re-use the heat it generates to heat your household’s water, lowering the cost of heating water in your home by half or more.
