Did you know...? The EPA found that GSHP's are one of the best advanced, alternative, space conditioning systems available. They save money, reduce emissions, and are cost effective in replacing conventionl heating and cooling technologies. |

| 7 Upsides to GSHP's | |
 |
More Living Space: The condensing unit can be installed even in a tight space allowing more living space for you. |
 |
Low Operating Cost: Reduce heating and cooling costs and, with the proper equipment, supplement the cost of hot water. |
 |
Low Noise: GSHP systems are among the quietest home comfort systems ever designed. |
 |
Reduced Emissions: GSHP's move heat instead of creating heat by combustion, so they do not pollute the air. |
 |
Predictablilty: A GSHP is a buffer against the rising cost of fossil fuels, and will help keep your energy expenses stable. |
 |
Low Maintenance Cost: GSHP's have fewer mechanical components to service. |
 |
Longevity: The ground heat exchanger and its piping is warranted for 25-50 years. |

Put your money where it will work for you!
~RCEC will provide a discounted rate for qualifying GSHP installations. A sub meter must be installed to allow the discounted rate.
~ Sub meter for heat pump has to be in a location that allows RCEC access to the meter. It can not be in the house!
~Sub meter can only have heat pump wired to it.
NO AUXILLARY HEAT!
Points to Remember!
|
Think "Long Term": The initial, greater expense of the GSHP system is offset by the saving in utility costs. A few years of savings on your energy bills completely pays for the equipment and installation costs of a GSHP system. It's all dividends beyond your "break-even point;" and you can consider the energy savings as "money in the bank." |
|
It's a Simple Plan: A GSHP system consists of three peices of equipment--Under-Ground Loops, an Indoor Heat Pump, and an Air-Handling System (Ductwork). |
|
Keep you eye on the "ticker.": A GSHP can reduce your water heating expense. Adding a "Desuperheater" atachment to the GSHP system can provide up to 70% of a residence's hot water. |
|
Do your due "diligence.": Make a visit to your local electric cooperative part of your house-planning process. The Cooperative can suggest the best heating and cooling system for your needs and help you make choices, ensuring the greatest return on the investment in your home. |

Rebate Oppourtunity for GSHP's
Please notify RCEC before installation begins, to ensure that your Ground Source Heat Pump meets all required specifications to qualify for the $250.00 per ton rebate!
- Heat loss calculations based on Manual-J guidelines must be performed and submited with the rebate application.
(Manual-N for commercial applications)- Minimum Delta-T Factor of 80 Degrees, calculated without considering any resistance heat. (Minimum temperature difference between inside and outside temperature of 80 degrees must be used in the above heat loss calculation.)
- Loop Configuration must be based on an accepted loop sizing method, similar to the IGSHPA CLGS Design Program.
- Resistance strip-heat, either auxillary or emergency, must be placed on a separate breaker or fuse system, and may be manually switched in the event it is required.
- A blower door test is recommended to provide a more accurate infiltration value.
