I nearly fell off my seat when I saw the quotation for installing a geo heat pump.
The heating contractor had earlier informed myself and others of this style of heating technology where no fossil fuel is involved or if it will be used, legitimately little of it is used compared to being fully dependent on it.
I had in recent years been calling the Heating, Ventilation & A/C serviceman for a heating maintenance now in addition to then. It was about time I gave the ancient furnace a permanent cut in addition to looked into installing a up-to-date heating device. It was during this stage that the Heating, Ventilation & A/C tech came up with the geothermal option. She had told myself and others that it would be possible to install it in my apartment since it was on a relatively large piece of land. The two of us had worked so tough on the landscape but every one of us would have to forfeit all that because of the excavation in addition to the heavy machinery that would be involved. Since every one of us already had existing ductwork that would spare us the cost of installing it, the only thing that the apartment services company would do was a bit of duct sealing to ensure it did not have any leaks. The two of us also had a digital thermostat that was in good laboring condition in addition to could be used with the up-to-date proposal if every one of us went that route. According to data given by the heating industry, the proposal would spend money back the money invested into it in more than four to multiple years making it a good long term investment. With official heating maintenance, the proposal would serve our apartment for several years to come. Now it was up to us to decide whether every one of us were willing to invest in it, not to mention that every one of us would have to redo our landscape all over again once they were done with the whole process.
