Geothermal heating and cooling

WaterFurnace International Inc. has just unveiled a new product line, the Envision Series geothermal heating and cooling system, available now through the company’s dealer network.

WaterFurnace produces state-of-the-art geothermal heating and cooling systems for commercial and residential markets. The Envision line has the highest heating and cooling efficiency marks of any products certified by the Air Conditioning & Refrigeration Institute in its category, the company said in written statement. The geothermal heating and cooling system is an investment in affordable comfort and a huge step in protecting our natural resources. This system does not burn fossil fuels and therefore does not release harmful carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

The secret of a WaterFurnace system's clean, efficient operation is the earth's ability to store heat. In fact, 47 percent of the sun's energy that reaches our planet is absorbed into the earth. That's 500 times more energy than all of humanity would need in a year! And it's an unlimited source of energy. Want to know how environmentally awesome these geothermal heating and cooling systems are? Installing one of them is the equivalent of planting 750 trees, or taking 2 cars off the road. So what is geothermal energy? It is an unlimited natural resource that exists everywhere. The earth contains huge amounts of thermal energy that is constantly fed by the sun. By using the earth to provide up to 50 percent of a building's total heating and cooling needs, WaterFurnace systems are truly geothermal energy made practical.
