Announcement: New Geothermal project to start in Canon City, Colorado.

Sensible Energy LLC is pleased to announce that we will begin a new geothermal project in Guffey, Colorado. This project is a single family log cabin that will be used as a second home. It is a true log cabin as the building materials are 8″ round logs stacked on top of each other. We are excited to be a part of this project to be able to see how well geothermal energy compliments this type of construction.
There is a paradigm shift where people are going from burning fossil fuels for heat to heating with electricity. It used to be that using electricity to heat your house was extremely expensive but with todays technologies it now costs less than heating with gas. If we can heat your house with electricity then you no longer have the need for gas at all. The really cool thing about that is that we know how to make electricity and can reproduce it so it now becomes sustainable. Sustainability is extremely important and don’t let anyone tell you differently.
This particular project is going to be a water to air geothermal heat pump system with a horizontal ground loop. We have decided to install a WaterFurnace NDV unit as it provides all the amenities and warranties we need to offer a solid system once we are done. Also, the NDV unit uses an ECM blower motor which can circulate air at a fraction of the cost of standard PSC motors. This feature is perfect for this home as they are incorporating passive solar theories. Sensible Energy LLC will be installing all the air distribution ductwork and ventilation work as well as adding the desuperheater option with storage tank. Another feature of this home will be Ecobees’ WI/FI thermostat so the homeowner can check on his getaway home from the convenience of his Iphone, Droid phone, or home computer. It offers this ability at an affordable cost and has a very nice color touchscreen.
Check back for updates and we at Sensible Energy wish you a good summer!
