If you’ve been thinking about replacing your home heating or central air conditioning system, your timing couldn’t be better. 
That’s because the U.S. government has extended its Energy Star tax credit program on new or replacement home heating and cooling equipment.
Specifically, you can earn a 30% tax credit on a geothermal heat pump combined home heating and cooling system. The credit applies both to the system and professional installation services of Messmer Mechanical.
Geothermal heat pumps are similar to ordinary heat pumps, but instead of using heat found in outside air, they rely on the stable, even heat of the earth to provide heating, air conditioning and, in most cases, hot water.
From Montana's minus 70 degree temperature, to the highest temperature ever recorded in the U.S. - 134 degrees in Death Valley, California, in 1913 - many parts of the country experience seasonal temperature extremes. A few feet below the earth's surface, however, the ground remains at a relatively constant temperature. Although the temperatures vary according to latitude, at six feet underground, temperatures range from 45 degrees to 75 degrees Fahrenheit.
Ever been inside a cave in the summer? The air underground is a constant, cooler temperature than the air outside. During the winter, that same constant cave temperature is warmer than the air outside.
Great Energy Savings, Too.
Studies show that approximately 70 percent of the energy used in a geothermal heat pump system is renewable energy from the ground. And that can help you cut your home heating and cooling energy bill by 30 – 40%.
So contact Messmer Mechanical today for all the details on a geothermal heat pump, including a 30% federal tax credit and year-round energy savings.
