Our total $1,700 electric bill for 2007 reflects the efficiency of our geothermal heating and cooling system.  The only other means of backup heating is a gas fireplace.  The system is so quiet (no big furnace or central air kicking in every 5 minutes) that you can almost hear yourself think.  We are pleased that we do not have an unsightly oil or propane tank in our rural location.  Our system has been worry free since it was installed by S&B Geothermal three years ago and we highly recommend their service and ECONAR heat pumps.

S&B Geothermal installed a geothermal heat pump in our new Afton, MN home in the early 1990s.  It recently gave out in very cold weather.  S&B Geothermal was very responsive to our need for immediate heat.  It's installers were here the same day with a new back-up furnance.  A new high efficiency heat pump was installed and operating within two days.  We have had nothing but good service from S&B Geothermal.

When we were exploring our options for installing a geothermal system, we investigated many vendors.  S&B Geothermal provided a proposal that was simple,  straight-forward and didn't have any hidden or undetermined costs!  In our opinion, S&B carried the most experience installing geothermal systems as some other vendors have just started doing geothermal systems.  We didn't want a botched installation due to a lack of experience.

S&B Geothermal worked diligently with my builder to ensure a proper installation.  The installation was professional and of great quality.

We've been in our home for over 2 years and we are astounded by the quality of the installation and the performance of the system.  We keep our home at about 72 degrees year-around.   Our system keeps our house warm even when the temperature hits 20 below.  We don't worry about our pocket book when we want to turn up the thermostat in the winter or turn it down in the summer.  The cost per month is less than our cable bill!   The geothermal system has saved us about $1000 per year.  We are looking to get a return on our investment in about 4-5 years.
