Geothermal
Within excess of 300% energy efficiencies, geothermal is recognized by the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency as the most earth friendly, safe and efficient heating and cooling systems. They transfer the earth’s energy stored 8’ underground through a series of earth or slinky loops. This energy is then extracted by the refrigeration process inside the geothermal heat pump, and transferred into the home or office via forced air or hydronic HVAC system.
Strandlund Refrigeration, Heating and Cooling offers premium geothermal systems from Econar and Geocomfort.
Geothermal heating and cooling is the
most efficient way to condition your
environment. So much so that we have
launched Geothermal Minnesota.com to
help you learn all about it.
Below is an example of savings from a Strandlund installed Geothermal system. You can see examples of our installations here.
