If You're Seeking Residential Geothermal, Look to Us October 15, 2012 With energy costs continuing to go up, many Atlanta residents are seeking ways to spend as little money as they can on their utilities. Many have invested in energy efficient light bulbs, established that their insulation is providing a decent barrier, and making sure that they turn off all of their electronics when they don't need them. These are all top-notch ways to help save on your energy costs. Still there's a lot of cash to be saved on your heating and cooling bills by installing a more effective heating and air conditioning unit. A geothermal unit can help you lower your utility bills by supplying a number of benefits to the owner, including ... Energy Efficiency - Traditional heating systems max out at 98% efficiency, but a home geothermal system can give you efficiencies of up to 500%! This is obtainable because for each unit of electrical energy used to heat your Atlanta home, 5 units of heat are extracted from the earth, resulting in savings of up to 70%! Positive Cash Flow - In many cases, the operating expenses for your new residential geothermal system will be surpassed by the savings you will see on your energy bill. Federal Tax Credit - Recoup 30% of the installation costs and see a faster return on your investment by taking advantage of the tax credit offered by the Federal Government. Low Maintenance Costs - Thanks to less moving parts, the complete void of combustion, and with the unit being installed indoors and out of the weather, geothermal systems require a very small amount of maintenance, saving you even more money in the long run.
