Thermal & Geothermal Energy Options
Domestic Hot Water & Building Heating
Go Solar Thermal for heating water and also for supplying much of your heating needs, reducing your gas usage dramatically. Given we are in a very dry climate, solar hot water heating has a fine side benefit- humidifying your home or other building. The panels containing tubing are installed, usually on the roof. A domestic hot water system often only requires two 4’ x 10’ panels and costs about $9,000. Full systems to heat as well as supply domestic hot water cost about $20,000. A $2,000 tax credit is available and these systems pay for themselves quickly.

Add Geothermal for Heating and Cooling
Lower both gas and electricity usage with a geothermal system. We will drill holes up to 250’ deep, install coils and other equipment, and bring up the heat energy. Geothermal systems produce both warmth and cooling for your building, covering up to 100% of your needs. While there are no government incentives right now, with geothermal you need none. Most systems will pay for themselves through savings in five to eight years.
