Geothermal

Century Mechanical Contractors, Inc. is the leader in geothermal cooling and heating services in the Metroplex. Geothermal is the most energy-efficient, environmentally clean, and cost-effective space conditioning system available, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA found that geothermal 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 with standard air-conditioning equipment. Earth's energy storage capability can be used to heat and cool buildings. The earth is a huge energy storage device that absorbs 47% of the sun's energy -- more than 500 times more energy than mankind needs every year -- in the form of clean, renewable energy. 

Geothermal systems take this heat from the earth during the heating season, and return it back during the cooling season. To find out more about geothermal systems and how the systems work, please visit GeoExchange Consortium or International Ground Source Heat Pump Association
