Renewable Energy for the Home

Anyone familiar with Geo Excel geothermal systems?

15 years ago

I recently posted this question in the heat and air forum but realized this one seems to have more geothermal action.

I'm considering geothermal on a new build, and just visited the company in town that has the best reputation in the GT field. Their unit of choice is Geo Excel, which I have not heard of. This means nothing, of course, because they are the experts and I am not.

I was curious, though, to see if anyone around here had any experience with Geo Excel.

Thanks
