- Geothermal Home Heating
By: Cindy Hammer | - How It Works
The sun is our planet's largest natural energy source. The earth stores about 47% of the solar energy that enters the atmosphere. Thus, the question is: How can we get this energy out of the ground and use it in our homes? The simple transfer of heat is the answer. When you put a steaming hot slice of pizza in the refrigerator, the cool air inside takes away the heat of the food. Geothermal heating and cooling (also known and geoexchange) works the same way. The transfer ...

- Save Money With Heat Pumps In Phoenix
By: Ryan Spark | - A heat pump is a system that acts like an AC in summers and circulates warm air from outside in winters. It circulates air from one location to the other and therefore saves the effort of setting up two different systems: AC and Furnace.
A heat pump uses freon for heat transfer. Use of freon 4601A gives better heat efficiency and it does not contribute to global warming.
Installing a heat pump would also earn you tax credit up to 30 percent, through federal tax cre ...

- How Does Geothermal Heating Work?
By: Amy Nutt | - What is Geothermal Heating? Humans have been using geothermal power for heating purposes for centuries. This specific type of energy has been contained within the heat that lies in the core of the earth since the planet was formed. The heat comes from radioactive decay of minerals as well as from solar energy that is absorbed at the earth's surface. Humans have figured out how to harvest this energy and put it to use in the form of heating. Typically, the heat is harvested near tectonic pla ...

- Heat Pumps
By: Peter Searancke | - Ground Source Heat Pumps
The primary difference between a ground source heat pump and a conventional boiler is that a conventional boiler is usually designed to heat the property between certain hours. It achieves this by outputting an enormous amount of heat over a short space in time. The property heats up, the boiler switches off and the house goes cold again.
A ground source heat pump works differently to this. The ground source heat pump does not like producing ...

- Alternative Resources And Possibilities For Alternative Energy In Washington Dc
By: Samson Paulotti | - Energy efficiency, rather than the more conscience-based energy conservation, is a technology-based harnessing of natural resources for power. Conservation seeks to use less energy by turning on lights less often, watching less television, etc, and thereby using less power, but energy efficiency is a science that allows for us to do the same things we normally do, only what we use needs less resources to work. Examples of this science are compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs), and high efficien ...
