Geothermal energy is an increasingly popular source of renewable energy that uses the natural heat of the earth to provide heating and cooling for buildings.
Commercial geothermal systems in Toronto, ON are becoming more common as businesses look for ways to reduce their carbon footprint and their lower energy costs.
Is using a geothermal system something you’ve considered for your commercial facility? If so, take a look below at some of the major benefits you might enjoy.
Geothermal energy offers special advantages for heating and cooling commercial facilities. These systems remove boilers and cooling towers from the conventional HVAC set-up for a building and instead use the thermal energy of the earth—a renewable resource and one that allows for high levels of energy efficiency.
Although geothermal heat pumps aren’t “new” technology, they are new to many commercial facility owners and operators, who often have many questions about how geothermal operates and if it will work for their specific needs. We’re experienced with all types of HVAC for commercial and industrial facilities and have worked extensively with geothermal HVAC in Toronto, ON, so we can provide answers to some of the most common questions.
We are a full-service commercial HVAC contractor in the Greater Toronto Area that works with company spaces of all sizes, from small business buildings to extensive industrial facilities. We can help retrofit buildings for the newest in heating and cooling technology, replace standard systems, and work with new construction projects to install the ideal new HVAC system for them.
Today, we’re going to address a topic we want you to consider if you are in the planning stages for a new commercial construction project: using a geothermal system for your heating and cooling requirements. Geothermal continues to grow in popularity as a commercial and residential HVAC solution, but people sometimes feel hesitant about making the leap to using the energy of earth for their commercial buildings.
Below we’ve listed reasons you may wish to put commercial geothermal at the top of your list for a new commercial project:
Not many Toronto, ON, commercial HVAC contractors offer complete service to install, repair, and maintain ground-source heat pumps, i.e. geothermal heat pumps. But we do.
Not only are our commercial HVAC technicians experienced and skilled with geothermal services, we actively encourage our clients to look into the possibilities of using this alternative form of energy for climate control in their facilities. The benefits of geothermal systems are numerous—and they’re much more widely available than people often believe.
The standard way of providing climate control inside most commercial facilities is with the air-source heat pump. You’re most likely familiar with these as the rooftop units found on commercial buildings. They work through refrigeration circulation to move heat either into or out of a facility space. The reason they’re called “air-source” heat pumps is because the use the air both indoors and outdoors for heat transfer.
But what other option is there aside from using the air? The ground! The ground-source heat pump draws and deposits heat in the ground beneath the frost line, allowing it to either heat or cool the air inside a space. You know this type of HVAC system better as a geothermal system.
Here we are with a new blog, where we’ll share commercial technology and offer ideas for how we can help you improve your company’s operation. We’re here to assist with comfort and process through our HVAC services for commercial and industrial buildings.
We’d like to start with a look at one of the best options for a business to go “boilerless” and “towerless” when it comes to heating and cooling: the geothermal heat pump, a.k.a. ground-source heat pump. We offer complete commercial geothermal services in Toronto, ON and the surrounding areas.
