Tomorrow's Heating and Cooling Technology Installed and Serviced by R.M. Thornton, Today.
Geothermal systems use the earth's naturally occurring temperatures of between 50 to 60 degrees to heat in the winter and cool in the summer.
R.M. Thornton, with its 75+ years experience as Washington's Mechanical Contractor stays on the cutting edge of HVAC technology, servicing and installing geothermal heating and cooling systems.
R.M. Thornton is a factory authorized dealer for ECR Technology, Inc. equipment in the Washington, D.C. metro area. To find out more about this great new technology, visit the ECR Technology website at http://www.ecrtech.com.
Here's what they're saying about Geothermal Systems.
"U.S. EPA and DOE have determined that ground source heat pumps have the lowest environmental impact of all heating systems and they reduce energy consumption and corresponding emissions up to 72% when compared to electric heat strips and standard air conditioning. The refrigerant used by EarthLinked® is not toxic, and is the same as that currently used by a majority of the HVAC industry."
"By using the constant and favorable temperature of the earth as its heat source, 75% of the heat delivered to the building by EarthLinked® is renewable energy, therefore efficiency is greatly improved. Mechanical simplicity and the constant earth temperature assure longer equipment life and less maintenance."
