Geoexchange makes a material difference in reducing your carbon footprint:

  • For an 3,500 sq foot home, a geoexchange system will reduce your footprint by 9 tonnes annually, the equivalent to taking over 3 cars off the road or planting 2 acres of trees
  • No combustion is needed to heat your home, reducing your dependence on fossil fuels
  • Energy efficient; your geoexchange system only requires one unit of energy for every 3 to 4 units of free energy supplied from the ground
  • Reduce your overall energy consumption by ~75 or greater

 

Geoexchange is one of the cheapest and most reliable ways to heat and cool most buildings today.

You have the capability to reduce your carbon footprint immensely with geoexchange. Geoexchange systems do not burn fossil fuel to produce energy so they generate far fewer greenhouse gas emissions than a conventional furnace. Geoexchange is the most significant step you can take to achieve an energy efficient home. In fact, the Ontario government recognizes the importance of geoexchange systems and currently refunds all taxes paid up to $3,500.

According to data supplied by Natural Resources Canada and by the U.S. Department of Energy and EPA, if just 100,000 homes converted to geoexchange, Canada could reduce its CO2 emissions by 400,000 tonnes. That would be the equivalent of planting more than 120,000 acres of trees.

Carbon Savings & Reduction in Energy Consumption

Installing a CleanEnergy geoexchange system is the most significant action within your power to positively impact the environment and reduce your carbon footprint

  • For a 3,500 square foot house a geoexchange system will reduce carbon emissions by ~9 tonnes per year
  • Considering the average Canadian adult has a total carbon footprint of ~20 tonnes per year, with your new geoexchange system you will be over 50% of the way to becoming carbon neutral

 

Reduce Overall Energy Consumption

  • Installing a geoexchange system will reduce your overall energy consumption by as much as 80% vs. a traditional natural gas HVAC system
  • In comparison, replacing incandescent lighting with high efficiency Compact Fluorescent Lighting (CFL) and using EnergyStar appliances will only reduce energy consumption by ~7% combined
  • Why? Because the main energy draw of your home is the heating system
