We just had a Geothermal system put in. All was fine, but after about three or four days, my wife and I started feeling sick.
I was lifgt-headed. My wife was more sensitive and had headaches, burping, nausia, upset stomach, and burning eyes.
The technicians were out but couldn't find anything wrong.
We have it off most the time and is frustrating with high tempurtures and humidity.
We had the ductwork cleaned, vacuum serveral times and dusted to no avail. Everytime we put it back on the symptoms come back mildly in a few hours, then worst in about a day.
The company isn't very cooperative, and it's very frustrating. Never imagined having these problems.
If we can't fix this fixed then what do we do? Install another regular furnace and air condictoner?

∙ 11y agothe bad thing about solar energy is that is thatfirstly the amount of energy we get from the sun is dilute even in the hot desert of world and secondly the technology we use for this energy is very expensive.

Some customers are concerned about heat pumps due to bad experiences with air-to-air heat pumps, especially in the northern portion of the United States, or based on early installations in the 1950s or 1960s. Water source heat pumps have no defrost cycle, are not subjected to outdoor temperature extremes nor deterioration from weather or atmospheric conditions. Thus, life and performance are substantially improved.

∙ 7y agoThere are some disadvantages to using only geothermal energy
- Location - Geothermal plants can't just be built wherever anyone wants. It has to have a suitable amount of geothermal activity.
- High installation costs.
- The location can suddenly run out of geothermal activity.
- Geothermal energy cannot be moved great distances, so it can be used to power only the area around it.
- Some hazardous substances can come up with the geothermal energy.
- Many geothermal sources are subject to earthquakes which could damage the system.
