HVAC Systems

Also known as an evaporative cooler, this system creates a natural and energy-efficient way to cool outdoor air and direct it inside the home. Best suited for hot, dry climates.

Heat and cool individual rooms or zones using a series of small units. Ductless may be a good choice if you can't extend your existing ductwork—or you live in an older home with no ductwork whatsoever.

Ground temperature is warmer than the air in winter and cooler than the air in summer. Geothermal heat pumps exchange heat with the earth to heat and cool your home.

Zoning can be accomplished in different ways, including single-system and multiple-unit setups. The end result is the same: you'll be able to save energy by managing the climate in specific parts of your home.

Heating elements under the floor (or sometimes in the ceiling or walls) provide warmth, while empty floor tubing is used to create a cool floor that absorbs excess heat in the summer.

An efficient option for heating homes in warm climates, heat pumps are essentially air conditioners that can switch to become heaters by using the heat generated by processing refrigerants.

A dual-fuel heat pump is an electric heat pump and a gas furnace all in one. That makes it an ideal system for generally mild climates where it's unusual for the temperature to drop below freezing.
