Is Geothermal Heating & Cooling for New Commercial Construction a Difficult Decision? - Hardly:
Not Implementing Geothermal Heating and Cooling in any new construction project underway or planned for any large building with central heating and cooling requirements
may have serious economic consequences for the future of the structure. The significance of proven energy savings realized in large buildings is an economic factor that warrants
serious thought with current energy prices. The levels of prices that energy is likely to rise to in future years will certainly play an even greater role in the use value or resale
value of sizeable buildings. If a school system, the savings can have huge benefits to annual budgets and initial costs will be practically irrelevant when weighed against savings over
a period of just a few years. Decisions to cover additional costs for geothermal heat exchange loops should far outweigh many alternative considerations for budget
expenditures. In a multi-unit apartment complex or commercial tenant space, the competitiveness of your lease or rental space, as well as your future resale value, can be directly tied to costs for energy.
The choice of geothermal versus conventional heating and cooling systems in these types of facilities should be a very easy one to make with just a little analysis of energy costs
spread over several years with today's energy prices. Allowing for probable future increases in energy costs should make the toughest decision be choosing which geothermal contractor installs your
heating and cooling system.
Replacing Aging Heating & Cooling Systems with Geothermal:
If you have an aging heating and cooling system in a school, institutional or commercial building that is nearing replacement age, your decision of geothermal versus conventional is probably
not much more difficult than if constructing a new building once savings are calculated over just a few years.
In the case of either new construction or replacement of aging heating and cooling systems, we can assist you with the economics of geothermal versus conventional systems. Replacement may even be
an economical option for your system if it isn't that old, given skyrocketing energy prices. Professional Engineering consultation may be recommended for larger commerical, institutional or multi-tenant buildings.
