“Out of sight, out of mind –that’s pretty much how the WaterFurnace system has worked for us for the past six years. It’s very, very dependable. Another advantage is that it doesn’t take a lot of floor space, and we are able to utilize more of the building for employee workspace, not for a large, dirty mechanical room.”

“The Customer Service Center was built to showcase geothermal technology. The units are so quiet that we had to incorporate white noise into our piped-in music system, not to mention the high degree of comfort achieved all year long.”

“After extensive testing of various manufacturers’ products, we chose WaterFurnace. The reasonis simple: WaterFurnace heat pumps were more efficient; the price was right; and WaterFurnace’s salesperson made it easy.”
