Ithaca, New York

We are a small firm that does one kind of work.

Six Mile Ground Energy is eight people who design, install and service ground-source heat pumps. We drill with a partner and do everything else ourselves. We would rather lose a job to air-source than sell a loop that does not suit the house.

Who you will meet

  • Yoko Higa

    Owner and system designer

    Does the heat-loss numbers and writes every proposal, ground and air. Starts every job from the bills, not from the equipment.

  • Dena Hunt

    Field lead

    Connects, flushes and pressure-tests the loop, then runs the inside install.

  • Anjum Trivedi

    Controls and commissioning

    Sets the pumps, flows and thermostats, and returns after the first month.

  • Randolph Norton

    Site and loop-field coordinator

    Marks the bores, schedules the drilling partner and checks the restoration.
