Geothermal Systems

As energy costs continue to rise, geothermal heating/cooling systems provide a cost-effective, on-site renewable energy alternative to conventional HVAC systems. Owners, developers and architects are increasingly discovering the feasibility and savings from geothermal energy. Geothermal systems use the natural thermal capacity of the soil and rock beneath your property to cool and heat your building or home. These systems qualify for Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) certification points as a result.

SAK Environmental partners with mechanical/electrical/plumbing (M/E/P) design firms, well drillers, and ground source heat pump manufacturers to provide turnkey services for open and closed loop geothermal wells. SAK has more than 20 years experience in well design, drilling inspection, water quality evaluation, and aquifer studies. SAK's technical experts include hydrogeologists, geologists, chemists, engineers, construction managers, and compliance specialists. Proper well construction, water chemistry analysis, and regulatory permits should not be overlooked when designing or installing geothermal heating/cooling systems. Improperly designed wells may lead to underperforming systems, increased maintenance, and regulatory enforcement. Architects, M/E/P designers, and developers can benefit from SAK's expertise for an optimal performing geothermal system.
