Geothermal heating and cooling systems are perfect for the southeast Virginia climate. During our relatively mild summers, these systems can provide plenty of cooling power, and in the winter they can be 300-600 percent more efficient than systems that try to warm the cold air.
If you're looking for an HVAC upgrade that will help you save on energy expenses and also help the environment, geothermal heating and cooling is the way to go. But you need to act now. A few years ago, there were tax credits for almost every type of high-efficiency HVAC product, but many have expired over the last couple of years. Only the most efficient products still qualify for credits.
You still need a geothermal expert to assess your property so they can suggest the best type, location and installation for a geothermal heating and cooling unit. They'll help you choose between closed-loop, open-loop and hybrid systems, depending on what is best for you. If you're ready to start saving on energy expenses and you want the tax credits you deserve, contact Russell's Heating & Cooling.
