Most of our investments therefore go to solutions and devices that provide us with a high degree of comfort, especially at home. Renewable energy heating systems are among these new alternatives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One example is the geothermal system, which is made up of three elements\u2013an underground circuit, a heat pump and a heat distribution system\u2013uses heat that is stored naturally in the ground. In Quebec, this heat is between 8o and 10o C and, at a depth of more than 2m, is invariable throughout the year. It is this heat that is captured by the underground network and sent to the heat pump, which then distributes it inside the house. The same operating principles allow the reverse process in summer, when the heat from the interior is channelled to the ground.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>What are the benefits of heating with a geothermal system?<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most obvious benefit is a high degree of comfort throughout the year, with little temperature variation. The versatility of the geothermal system, providing heating in winter and air conditioning in summer, is the second.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, you can expect lower heating costs and cheaper electricity bills. It is estimated that the return on investment varies between 8 and 12 years, but this largely depends on the particular conditions of each residence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A final strong argument in favor of geothermal energy is its ecological value, since we are eliminating the use of fossil fuels and reducing electricity consumption.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>What are the requirements for installing a geothermal system?<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although this system is very effective, it is important to consult with heating specialists before making this investment, as not all residences are eligible for such a project.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First of all, you should know that for the installation of such a system, it is necessary to have a fairly large area (the surface needs to be at least twice the width of the surface to be heated) for the drilling and installation of the underground circuit. Another option is to have a vertical loop circuit, but this variant is always more expensive.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for the distribution system, it is more beneficial to consider a geothermal heat pump if the house already has an air duct system, otherwise you will need extra work and expenses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although the installation of a geothermal system does not depend on the quality of the house\u2019s insulation, its energy efficiency will be greatly influenced by it. So, before purchasing a geothermal heat pump, make sure the house is well insulated.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Seek advice from an Allard &amp; Emond specialist<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have any questions about the advantages and limitations of geothermal energy, don\u2019t hesitate to speak with one of our in air conditioning and geothermal heating systems specialists.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our offer being rich and varied, we will surely help you find the system that is best for you!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/allardemond.com\/en\/get-a-quote_494\"><b>GET A QUOTE ONLINE<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you prefer, you can <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/allardemond.com\/en\/get-a-quote_494\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">request an estimate here<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and we will contact you as soon as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The more technology evolves, the more we want to take advantage of it to improve our living conditions.
