For any new home construction project with more than 2000 square feet, it is a near certainty that geothermal heating & cooling is the best option.
Only unusual circumstances should dictate anything different. With new construction, the geoexchange installation costs can often be partially absorbed
along with other required phases of the construction process. For example, in the case of many basement homes, installation of the necessary ground loop
should only add a relatively small additional cost to excavating. In some cases, a common trench might be utilized for both the incoming water service line and
the ground loop heat exchange lines just by increasing trench depth. The service line sets can then be routed into the structure together.
Free Geothermal Feasibility Evaluations for Residential Installations:
If you are nearing the point of needing to replace your existing residential
Heating & Cooling System, Geothermal is something that you should certainly consider. Your individual circumstances may be that geothermal is not your best option but that
is not most likely if you have an average or larger sized home and are not extremely limited in site area surrounding your home. Still, there are several considerations that
should be taken into account in making an educated determination of which type system to go with. Scheduling a preliminary evaluation by a representative for a licensed,
certified or accredited installer is just a telephone call or email message away. With a preliminary evaluation, the determination of whether your geothermal application may
require further study or is absolutely feasible can be made. In any event, you will never be charged for anything prior to a commitment to proceed with installation, should that
be your choice. For larger institutional or commercial buildings, an engineer will generally be required for feasibility considerations but for most residential applications, the conclusions can be much more
easily determined by the prospective installation experts. Specifications for installation of geothermal mechanical units, the electrical requirements and the capability requirements
for geoexchange ground loops are really no more complicated than for conventional heating and cooling systems. Site requirement considerations are the primary factors that differ in the
installation of geothermal systems and those can only be best determined by individuals with equipment and installation experience and expertise.
