Will geothermal energy be a proven cost effective way to heat and cool homes, and if so can you prove it.

Re: Geothermal, Heating More Fiction Than Fact?


it is a very cost effective method of heating and cooling-depending on installation costs. The proof is all over the net-research it for awhile and you'll run across plenty of studies from private companies and government energy sites. The key is keeping installation costs down so you can start 'saving' money (ROI)

Hi woodmagman

Find a website about Florida heat pumps and their history. When you get done, you will understand why I am an advocate for heat pump technology.

Good luck
Rusty
