			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.geothermalsolutions.ca/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/eco-energy-logo.gif"></a>Whats better then doing something that saves you money and reduces your impact on the environment? Doing something that gets a huge grant for saving money!!!! Win twice with a geothermal system!</p>
<p>The federal Government under the Eco- energy grant gives homeowners a cheque for $4,375 for going geothermal. This is not a tax incentive this is a rebate you recieve in the mail all for just making a wise decision to lower your home heating bills by 70% and making Ontario a better cleaner place to live. Its never been a better time to go geothermal.</p>
<p>To recieve the grant make sure you have an installer who is certified through the Canadian<a href="http://www.geothermalsolutions.ca/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/canadian-money.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-397" title="canadian-money" src="http://www.geothermalsolutions.ca/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/canadian-money-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>Geothermal Coalition. They can help you with all the paperwork and also certify your system so you recieve your grant.</p>
<p>Make sure you do your system as soon as possible though , the federal government pulled the program with short notice in 2010. The same program was reinstated after the federal election.Make sure you dont miss out on a great opportunity this time!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.geothermalsolutions.ca/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/grass-house-2.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-392" title="grass house 2" src="http://www.geothermalsolutions.ca/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/grass-house-2-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>We work for many contractors across Ontario who have in the past done their own loops.It may have been doing their own tie in&#8217;s on a vertical job, a full horizontal system, or getting in their boat and doing a lake loop. They did what they had to do to get the geothermal project in. Loop companies never existed. If you wanted to install geo you had to get it all done.</p>
<p>The process was usually slow and demanding. It took alot of time to prepare and then pull enough labour together to get out in the trenches. Usually an excavation company was hired to dig. The excavation companies treated these jobs as one offs that came last on the list. Usually making timing and co-ordination difficult. Everything came together eventually but it was time consuming, stressful, and daunting. Then you still had to trust that all the fusions were done correctly , the backfill was not done in haste, and the foundation was sealed correctly or all these things could cause a major headache down the road.</p>
<p>These are a few of the reasons to why a loop company can make your geothermal install easier, less stressful and more profitable for your company.</p>
<p>We have crews dedicated to each process who are knowledgeable and experienced with loops. By doing loops day in ,day out we have perfected the drilling ,trenching and fusion process. This gives a greater confidence to your customer that the loop is being done correctly. With our 10 yr workmanship guarantee you have piece of mind that the loop will operate without leaks for many years to come.</p>
<p>With our quotation you are also guaranteed that the budget for your geothermal install will not go over. This is how some of the most successful contractors are winning today. They know their costs ahead of time. When you do your own loop your at the mercy of everything going off without a hitch , which often does not happen when your digging in the ground. These contractors are selling the loop as a commodity and coming out on top on every project they complete.</p>
<p>Give Geothermal Solutions a call today <span style="color: #ff0000;">705 435 7566 <span style="color: #000000;">or email at </span><a href="mailto:info@geothermalsolutions.ca">info@geothermalsolutions.ca</a> </span>and we can help with ANY loop in ANY location.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Geothermal Solutions is able to determine the best type of earth loop to use in any situation. The type of loop used is based on available land space and installation costs for specific areas.</p>
<h2>Vertical Loop</h2>
<p>Vertical loops are used when space is limited. Holes are bored using a drilling rig, and a pair of pipes,with special u-bend fittings on the ends, is inserted into the holes. A typical home requires three to five bores with about a 10-foot separation between the holes.<span id="more-188"></span></p>
<h2>Horizontal Loop</h2>
<p>Horizontal loops are used where adequate land is available, horizontal loops involve one or more trenches that are dug using a backhoe or chain trencher. Polyethylene pipes are inserted, and the trenches are backfilled. A typical home requires 1/4to 3/4 of an acre for the trenches.</p>
<h2>Pond Loop</h2>
<p>If an adequately sized body of water is close to your home, a pond loop can be installed. A series of closed loops can be coiled and sunk to the bottom of a nearby pond. A 1/2-acre, 8-foot-deep pond is usually sufficient for the average home.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ground Source heating and cooling allows us to utilize the moderate temperatures found just below the earths surface. Almost 47 percent of energy from the sun is absorbed into the ground which creates a perfect environment of warm temperatures during the winter and cooler temperatures during the summer.</p>
<p><span id="more-83"></span>
<p>With ground source technology we are able to draw stored energy from the earth using an underground piping system that is heat-fused for maximum integrity. Fluid is circulated throughout the loop, which transfers heath to or from the ground.</p>
<p>During heating, the water furnace unit extracts heat from the earth loop (or well water) and, using a refrigeration process, the heat is intensified and transferred to the air, which is then delivered into the home.</p>
<p>During cooling the process is reversed. Hot air is removed from the home by cool refrigerant, then transferred to the ground although this refrigeration technology has been around fro decades the water furnace difference is using the unlimited and renewable temperatures of the earth.</p>
