MI Green School Guide: project catalog
Geothermal HVAC

Looking to reduce costs and greenhouse gas emissions at your school?

If it's time to upgrade your school's boiler system, take advantage of federal tax rebates schools can use to subsidize a cleaner, greener system with geothermal technology.

Ground-source geothermal heat pumps do not burn fossil fuels on-site and are shown to have positive air quality and health benefits over traditional boiler systems.
