We at Energy Smart Canada provide systems that work at 500% efficiencies in comparison to traditional heating or cooling systems. The reason for this is that geothermal technology extracts free energy from the earth for you use.

The geothermal system is made up of several components, including: pumps, compressors, pipes, ground source, heat exchangers and heat exchange fluid. The interplay of these components is how we take advantage of the constant temperature of the ground and achieve such high relative efficiencies.

The ground receives energy from both above and below. The heat of the core of the earth heats the ground from below while about 50% of the suns rays are absorbed by the surface of the ground. These constant additions of heat cause the ground to stay at a constant temperature whether you are adding or removing energy in the form of heat. Geothermal takes advantage of this constant temperature with closed loop systems for horizontal, vertical or lake/pond applications or using an open loop system and wells from available aquifers. Heat exchange fluid which is made from a environmentally friendly antifreeze solution fills your loop system and is pumped throughout your geothermal Field.

Once the heat exchange fluid is in your building it is pumped through a ground source heat pump that extracts the energy from the fluid in the form of heat. This is done by a compressor/refrigerant system which takes the heat from the heat exchange fluid via a heat exchanger and then transfers that heat to your application.

500% efficiency is determined by measuring the energy drawn in the form of electricity to power your pumps and compressors and the heat released by your ground source heat pump. For every 1 unit of energy you put into your system you remove an additional 4 units of energy from the earth and finish with 5 units of energy from your system.

This efficiency allows for tremendous savings in energy and can save up to %75 on energy bills allowing for a quick return on your investment. Combined with these energy savings geothermal brings unmatched comfort and safety for your application with the elimination of combustion and the addition of much more constant temperatures.

Geothermal: A responsible, safe, reliable, comfortable and cost effective investment.
