Top 3 Reasons to Consider a Geothermal Heating & Cooling System in Barron Wisconsin.
Here is a cut-to-the-quick summary on why it makes sense to consider a geothermal HVAC system to heat and cool your home in northwestern Wisconsin.
Geothermal in Barron, Wi. – Reason #1 Lowest Utility Costs: When compared to a conventional furnace and air conditioner, a Geothermal system offers the absolute lowest utility costs when designed and installed properly in a northwest Wisconsin home. With efficiencies of 400-500%, it will save substantially over even the latest high efficiency furnaces which can only achieve just under 100%. Our customers are commonly experiencing total utility savings of 60-65% (or more!) when compared to their previous traditional HVAC system. Our geothermal expert, Gerry Winch, can give you a very accurate estimate on the savings you can expect.
Geothermal in Barron, Wi. – Reason #2 Environmentally Friendly: Geothermal systems use a relatively small amount of electricity. And by not burning fossil fuels, when comparing to a traditional system, a geothermal system produces one less pound of carbon dioxide every hour of use. Over 20 years, that is equivalent to planting 120,000 acres of trees or taking 58,000 cars off the road! Now that is a carbon footprint we can all live with.
Geothermal in Barron, Wi. – Reason #3 Lowest Life-Cycle Cost: According to the EPA (United States Environmental Protection Agency), geothermal systems offer the lowest life-cycle costs to own compared to any other more traditional systems. And this includes both lower average maintenance costs as well as longer life expectancy of geothermal systems. (Traditional systems average 13-15 years Vs. 20- 24 on well-maintained Geo system equipment and 50 plus years estimated on loop field.)
