| We were intrigued when we learned
our home had a Geothermal system, although it wasn’t our
main motivation in buying it three years ago. However, we found
the system to be efficient, quiet and cheaper to run than we
expected. At our previous home (about the same square footage),
our electric bills were almost double the cost at this home.
And that was only for hot water and other electrical uses…the
main source of heating at our previous home was an oil burner
and we supplemented that with a wood-burning stove. So we are
really happy with the system and intend to maintain it as long
as we live here. We are also happy to have found Comfort Tech
for maintenance and repairs of our ECR Technologies unit when
we need them. |

Come in from the cold to the comforting warmth of home. You
and your family deserve a home environment that offers a comfortable
constant temperature that you select. |

All GeoExchange systems (previously known as "geothermal"
heat pump systems) use a refrigeration compressor to transfer
renewable heat energy from the earth. In the summer, these
systems reverse the cycle to exhaust unwanted heat into the
earth. |

| Earthlinked Geo-Thermal Earth Loops |
| |
| Earthlinked Geo-Thermal Earth Loops enable
direct exchange of thermal energy with the earth. Standard refrigeration
tubing is used because of its high thermal conductivity. The loops
are designed in three different configurations (horizontal, vertical
and diagonal) to meet most new and retrofit applications. This allows
for the selection of the most economical loop configuration for each
installation. |

| This project was a repair of an Earthlink System improperly
installed by a previous contractor. Care was not taken during the
installation of the ground loops, causing them to leak. This in turn
destroyed the GeoThermal compressor units. Earthlink completely backed
their products, replacing the units and called upon Comfort Tech to
install the system correctly. The home was 3,200 sq. ft. and required
both a 3 & 5 ton GeoThermal units in the basement. |

| I put in a Geo Thermal
system in hopes of decreasing my energy costs. I did some research
and decided upon what I thought was a reputable dealer, but,
after many problems and dollars later, found I had made a big
mistake and was taken advantage by someone who was not knowledgeable
with these systems. I was so disgusted with the system and upset
with myself that I had invested all this money for something
that did not work. I was told by this dealer that there was
nothing more that he could do and he would not work on the system
without investing additional monies. I later found out that
I had paid more than I should have. I was not happy with his
answer and decided to call Earth Link Geo Thermal, who was the
manufacturer of the equipment, and explained all the problems
I had encountered with this dealer. They took all the information
and I was told that they would get back to me. Well, I must
say that I was amazed when they called and informed me that
they wanted to make me a satisfied customer by correcting the
problems. A short time later, Comfort Tech was in touch with
me and was onsite to analyze the system. Everything needed replaced
from the line sets in the field to the units in the basement.
I now have both units up and running and cannot say enough about
Comfort Tech, and Earth Link for standing behind their products.
They could have told me that they were sorry and to go after
the contractor, but, they backed their product and fixed the
problems. I am once again a believer in Geo Thermal. |
