  • i love the concept but the price LOL ,,,

  • This is indeed the way of the future. We need to save our fossil fuels and save Mother Earth from destruction.

  • Ground source heat pumps utilize the earths geothermal energy. Heat is continually produced below the earths crust, mostly from the decay of naturally radioactive materials such as uranium and potassium. People selling this as geothermal energy ar absolutely correct, it has nothing to do with solar radiation.

  • @WarGamezzz

    Know what you are talking about before you talk about it. haha

  • Dude get off the crack!!!! who cares it works and they kill fossil fuel dependency

  • It's Polyethelene Pipe with heat-fused joints, rated for 200 years. The fluid used in the pipe is 85% water and 15% anti-freeze; completely earth friendly, will not freeze, and will not leak.

  • WarGamezzz, you're a tard. It doesn't matter if it's been incorrectly named. It still works.

  • @mwduncan1 Yeah definitely important to pick the location and system wisely. You make a big impact on the surrounding earth. You can end up having frozen parking lots when its well above freezing outside.

  • This is NOT GEOTHERMAL, these are called GROUND SOURCE COUPLED HEATPUMPS.

    People selling this as geothermal are bsing u, the constant temperature under 6ft or so of ground is caused by solar energy emitted from the sun. If it was REAL geothermal it would harness the energy from geothermal activity as is done in Iceland. It is incorrect to classify this alternative energy as "geothermal"

  • I thought that was a little high priced, too. Although, with the tax credits available and the energy return it is worth it - even that high.
