Is going 'GREEN' right for you?

With all the recent ‘green’ talk, you may have heard about Geothermal Heat Pumps, 95% Efficient Furnaces, and other energy-saving mechanical equipment. It can be confusing with so much information being tossed around, so let me give you a brief overview of some of the energy-saving, ‘green’ technologies that Eller Services offers.

95% Efficient Furnaces and 16+ Seer Air Conditioners - These are the most energy efficient furnace and A/C units you can purchase today. If you replace an old furnace with one of these, the savings in energy will, in many cases, pay for itself in 1-2 years! Eller Services has several options and brands to choose from, and we will come to your home to provide a FREE evaluation and replacement quote.

Geothermal Heat Pumps are a technology that uses the relatively constant temperature of the ground water several feet below the earth's surface as a source of heating and cooling. These systems can cut energy use by as much as 90%, and can be retrofitted for existing homes or businesses - no matter where you live. They are more expensive than traditional solutions, but the energy savings over the life of the unit and home is incredible. With Michigan’s long winters, mild summers and rising energy costs, Geothermal Heat Pumps are ideal. If you would like to learn more about Geothermal, or would like to schedule a FREE in home evaluation, visit our web site www.ellerservice.com or call 248.652.6650 TODAY! 

Continuous (tankless) hot water heaters have been common place in Europe & Asia for decades, and are quickly gaining popularity in the United States. Instead of keeping a large supply of water hot to be available all the time, a continuous water heater heats the water only when you need it. As a result, most households will save energy because they are not heating water 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Plus one of the best bonuses is that you never run out of hot water when you need it! Eller Services installs Rinnai brand heaters, the industry leader for continuous water heaters.

90% efficient water heaters save energy and keep a supply of hot water available for homes where a continuous water heater is not appropriate. Eller Services installs the A.O. Smith Vertex - the only truly 90% efficient heater on the market. 

Toilets with Dual Flush technology have two flush buttons - one uses 1.6 gallons of water, and the other 0.8 gallons, which translates into a savings of up to 18,000 gallons per year for an average family of 4. Only a few companies offer dual flush technology. Eller Services has chosen to focus on the Caroma brand, an Australian company who is a world leader with proven reliability. Not only will these toilets save water and money, they almost never clog because of their unique design and superior technology. 

The big question is, “Are these solutions right for me and when should I replace my old systems?”

There are many factors to consider when replacing mechanical equipment in a home or business. Eller Services will be happy to send one of our professionals (at no cost to you) to evaluate which systems are best for you. One thing is for certain, rising energy costs combined with the current tax rebates make this the best time to ‘go green’. Your pocketbook and the environment will thank you!
