Private Residence 5000 sq ft, Eagle Idaho
Retrofit – Removed (2) propane furnaces and (2) A/C units
2-Stage WaterFurnace Envision and Intellizone system allows us to once again replace two heating systems with one geothermal unit. Connecting the ductwork from both units and installing the zones were challenging here, but ended up working great. We also went into the attic and replaced all the supply air ductwork to ensure proper flow to the upper level zone. (more…)
Private Residence 4200 sq ft, Caldwell Idaho
New Construction
6 Ton water source heat pump and closed loop system. Zone controls allow three independent heating areas. The horizontal slinky loop configuration continues to be the most cost effective install in this area. Soil conditions and the heat load of the house always dictate the size of the loopfield. Depth is also a big factor. More below (more…)
Private Residence 7400 sq ft Residence, 3300 sq ft Woodshop, Office, Apartment Space
New Construction
This horizontal closed loop serves over 10,000 sq ft of heated space, domestic hot water, radiant floor, and hydronic air handlers. We installed a single WaterFurnace Envision to heat the 7400 sq ft home with four separate heating zones. A WaterFurnace E-Series water-to-water heat pump provides hot water which will heat the detached buildings and radiant floors. Both Geothermal Heat Pumps are connected to the same loopfield shown here. More below (more…)
Private Residence 2811 sq ft, Mountain Home Idaho
Retrofit – Removed propane furnace and A/C unit
This customer purchased this home, and immediately contacted us to install a geoexchange system. When he called the propane company to come and get his tank, they said “We are very sorry to loose you as a customer.” Apparently the propane truck was a frequent visitor during heating months. This is another earth loop that got modified due to lava rock. More below (more…)
Private Residence 3800 sq ft, Emmett Idaho
Retrofit – Removed propane furnace, electric furnace, and two A/C units
Installing this ground loop was challenging due to the sloped hillside. You can see the soil contained a large amount of river rock which made for a tedious backfill process as well. We are often able to remove two separate heating systems in a home, connect the ductwork together, and install a single WaterFurnace geo unit. The Intellizone control plays a huge part in the ability to do this. This home is experiencing much less than half the heating bill from winters past. (more…)
