Saving energy with a geothermal retrofit

This project provided a geothermal heat pump retrofit of an existing HVAC system at the Operations and Maintenance Building for SCWA. The previous system consisted of various sizes of packaged rooftop gas-electric units.

Project design features:

  • 100% geothermal heating & cooling.

  • Removed all natural gas use from the site (reduced carbon footprint).

  • Specified building control systems for managing and monitoring building system performance.
