Cohousing-L Mailing List: Heating systems

[Stephen Hawthorne (hawthorn]

Do any of the existing groups have any experince with geothermal heat pumps?
Our research as we approach retrofitting our recycled homes indicates that
this may be a viable system despite some additoinal upfront installation 
costs.  But since it's new technology, we're looking for info from people 
who've already taken the plunge.

Any tales of personal experience welcome.  Also welcome are any reports 
of why you might have considered geothermal heatpumps but rejected them.

Thanks,
