We install GEOTHERMAL HEATING & COOLING Systems

Did you know your own backyard has the resources to be an energy source that can heat and cool your home?

The earth absorbs 47% of the suns energy-more then 500 times more energy than mankind needs every year- in the form of clean, renewable energy! Simply put…you’ll never have to buy oil again! A Geothermal Heating & Cooling System draws heat from the ground and then transfers it to your home in the winter months and extracts heat from your home and transfers it to the ground in the summer months.

Benefits of Geothermal Heating & Cooling Systems

Geothermal systems are the most energy efficient, environmentally clean and
cost-effective space conditioning systems available according to the
Environmental Protection Agency. (EPA)

  • Geothermal systems represent a savings to homeowners of 30-70% in the
    heating mode and 20-50% in the cooling mode compared to conventional
    systems.
  • EPA found that Geothermal Heating and Cooling Systems can reduce energy consumption and corresponding emissions by over 40% compared to air source heat pumps and by over 70% compared to electric resistance heating systems with standard air conditioning equipment.
  • Free or reduced cost of hot water.
  • Saves you money in operating and mantinience costs
  • Keeps the temperature in your home more consistent, eliminating hot and cold
    spots common with other systems

Here is an example of the potential savings

Geothermal Heating & Cooling Systems are available for New Construction or we can retro-fit your existing home. Contact us to learn more and begin saving and living more comfortably info@nebrinc.com

High Performance Spray Foam Insulation

“Did you know that the Department of Energy estimates that air leakage accounts for as much as 40% of the energy used to heat and cool a home? A house that leaks air leaks money!

Applied as a liquid , spray foam instantly expands to fill every nook and cranny creating a tight building envelope which prevents air leakage (according to the U.S Department of Energy, fiberglass does not stop air leakage)

   

Quick Facts
