From hurricanes to hail storms and snow storms, New Jersey
and Pennsylvania residents see their fair share of inclement weather. Outdoor
HVAC components, like traditional air conditioner units, can be ravaged by bad
storms. Flooding can cause underground fuel tanks used in heating to rise. The
storms we experience can do a number on this equipment, rendering it useless or
in need of expensive repairs.
Geothermal heating and cooling systems are a storm proof
choice. Components are buried underground and housed inside your home. They are
not subjected to harsh outdoor elements like other equipment is.
After Hurricane Sandy, many homeowners in New Jersey and
Pennsylvania areas began searching for information about geothermal heating and
cooling systems. These homeowners had experienced major losses and were looking
for alternatives to protect their heating and cooling systems from weather
damage. Often times, homeowners were considering a switch to geothermal heating
and cooling systems before damage was incurred, and decide to make the jump
when their old equipment is damaged beyond repair.
The rise in geothermal heating and cooling system
installations in the area poses great benefits to the homes and buildings where
they are being added. The protected components will save owners money in the
long run, sparing damage expenses and insurance damage claims. Geothermal
heating and cooling systems are also reducing the emissions of the buildings
where they are installed. With over 40 percent of the world’s energy use being
consumed by buildings, geothermal heating and cooling systems are substantially
lowering the amount of energy needed to fuel the heating and cooling needs.
If you’re looking for an HVAC alternative that can stand up even to the toughest weather conditions, consider a geothermal heating and cooling system.
