Is geothermal energy better for the environment?

Yes! Unlike HVAC systems that are powered by electricity or fossil fuels, there are no emissions, carbon pollution, or toxic fumes associated with geothermal systems. Also unlike fossil fuels, which are finite, there is a virtually unlimited supply of geothermal energy. If every family in America switched to a geothermal heating and cooling system, they could collectively save several billion dollars annually in energy costs and substantially reduce pollution, according to the U.S. General Accounting Office. Since these systems are recognized by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as the most environmentally friendly heating and cooling technology available, it’s a system you can feel good about using.
