Why Is WaterFurnace the Smarter Choice?
Simply put, a WaterFurnace geothermal heating and
cooling system is:
- an investment in affordable comfort
and,
- an investment in the preservation of our
environment for generations to come.
The secret of a WaterFurnace system's clean,
efficient operation is the earth's ability to store heat. In fact, 47
percent of the sun's energy that reaches our planet is absorbed into the
earth. That's 500 times more energy than all of humanity would need in a
year! And it's an unlimited source of energy.
Installing a WaterFurnace system in a typical
home is the environmental equivalent of planting 750 trees—or taking two
cars off the road. That's because WaterFurnace systems don't burn fossil
fuels, and they don't emit carbon dioxide, which has been associated with
the greenhouse effect and global warming.
The Geothermal Heat Pump Consortium says
current geothermal systems save more than 14 million barrels of crude oil
every year. And because the only energy needed to run geothermal systems is
a small amount of electricity, they reduce the need for new coal-powered
electric power plants. Result? Cleaner air and less acid rain.
