Right under our feet, the soil contains an infinite quantity of energy accumulated in the form of heat. This source of clean energy today finds a logical application in heating and air conditioning of buildings.
With a geothermal system, you recuperate this energy for free. The system uses the heat pump principle to transmit underground heat by way of a piping system buried in the soil. This type of installation is easily adaptable to any new or existing construction.
The artesian well is the choice option because it is less vulnerable to bacterial contamination than the above ground well or the water intake from a spring.
When the well and installation of the pump are carried out by a competent specialized contracting firm, surface water infiltration risks should be non-existent, it ensures the water salubrity all year long.
An innovation, the geothermal heating and air conditioning solution offers several advantages for commercial or industrial buildings and other structures of greater size. You get better energy efficiency, while using 25 to 75% less electricity.
You save more and more as oil, gas or hydroelectric prices keep going up, and you also save more on your maintenance and repair costs. You become more autonomous, by connecting to a stable and constant heat flux. You save space and improve your comfort. And all this, while reducing your impact on the environment.
Connect heating floors and pipes that make the snow melt in your entrance, options are numerous!
Put your mind to rest: designed to last, the geothermal system requires little maintenance and it protects you integrally from bad weather.
Geothermal systems produce a ««green>> energy from a heat source which is virtually inexhaustible: the earth’s crust.
Owing to these simple energy exchanges, the geothermal system allows one to greatly reduce the emitting of earth warming gases coming from combustion.
