GS heat pumps extract geothermal energy to condition buildings.
Very low energy consumption.
Winter Summer
Advantages Disadvantages
• Simple • Temperature & humidity unregulated
• Lower first cost • No filtration
• Lower operating cost • Initial cost higher – if backup AC
provided
• User satisfaction
• Exterior noise can be a problem
• Elimination of mech. refrigeration
• Less flexible air intake location
• Less environment impact
• Rain
• No mechanical noise
Natural Ventilation
Mechanical Integration
Can this building be naturally ventilated?
Renewable Resources
Using HVAC mechanical systems to reduce loads by…
1. Minimizing the heating and cooling loads on the building.
2. Installing the smallest, most efficient systems possible.
3. Use a renewable energy source.
