Is there independent proof of the effect EarthLinked systems have on the environment?
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. The system’s efficiency results in greatly reduced emission of greenhouse gases and toxic gases associated with fossil fuel firing and the generation of electricity.
