Geothermal

If you wish to install geothermal on an existing home, low interest financing is available if the system is installed as part of a comprehensive package through the Home Performance with ENERGY STAR Program. Although this technology is not available in all areas, please contact a participating Building Performance Institute Accredited Contractor for more information on the Home Performance with ENERGY STAR Program.

Geothermal Customer's Home

"I really care about the environment and I wanted my new home to use the very best technology available, so I built a New York ENERGY STAR Home and installed a geothermal system. The energy savings are dramatic. My new house is more than twice as big as our previous home, but the heating bills are $500 a month lower."

~Paul Nagin
Geothermal Homeowner
