How pricing works

Ground-source jobs vary more than most heating jobs, so we do not print prices. We give you a written number after the site visit, with the parts listed.

  • What drives the cost

    Five things move it most.

    • The loop field: bore depth, count, soil and rock

    • The heat pump and its size

    • Radiators or ducts, reused or changed

    • Electric service and panel

    • Permits, restoration and removing the old system

  • What the proposal includes

    Each line says what is done, with which equipment.

    • Scope in plain words

    • The equipment model and size

    • Permits and inspections

    • Haul-away of the old system

    • Restoration of the lawn and drive

    • Warranty terms in writing, with what they do not cover

    • How long the number holds

  • What it leaves out

    So there are no surprises.

    • Air sealing or insulation done by someone else

    • Electrical service upgrades, unless listed

    • Repairs to radiators or ducts we did not find at the visit

  • What happens at the visit

    We walk it and read your bills.

    • We tell you the visit fee before you book it

    • We say whether it comes off the job if you go ahead

    • You get the proposal in writing, not on the spot

  • When you get the number

    After the visit, not before.

    • A written proposal, ground-source and air-source where it makes sense

    • Questions answered by the person who wrote it

    • No work booked until you sign

Get the number for your building.

The site visit is how we get a real one.
