Earth Power (Geothermal)

Geothermal heat pumps, often referred to as GeoExchange or Earth Energy systems, are more expensive to install than other heating and cooling systems but can cut your annual heating costs between 50 and 70 per cent. Manitoba Hydro provides a convenient Residential Earth Power Loan to assist qualifying homeowners with the cost of installation.
