30-Year Old Two-Story House, Elmira, Ontario
The Challenge:
This home was previously heated with an oil furnace which was very loud during start-up and because it was located directly beside the master bedroom, the noise factor was a big issue. Due to the rising cost of oil, the homeowner was relying heavily on his wood stove to heat the house in the winter. Even so, the costs of heating and hot water were quite high and the wood stove only heated the upstairs, while the downstairs remained cool. By choosing a NextEnergy geothermal system, the owners are now enjoying considerable savings and a new quiet system that provides efficient heating and cooling throughout their home.
