Benefits
Why is water+ good for your community, state and the U.S.?

•	According to the Environmental Protection Agency, geoexchange is the most economical and environmentally friendly way to comfort and condition our buildings and water+ is the most efficient form of geoexchange.
•	Each ton of air conditioning that is installed with water+ versus conventional systems will reduce one metric ton of carbon emissions from the atmosphere.
•	The U.S. market for conventional HVAC equipment is 6.6 million units per year. Assuming the average unit is 3 tons, that is 19,800,000 tons per year. We could reasonably expect to replace 10% of that equipment with water+, a total of 1,980,000 tons per year. That is a reduction of 2 million metric tons of carbon emissions from the air each year for the next 20 years.

The Kyoto Protocol requires the U.S. to reduce carbon emissions by 114 million metric tons by the year 2012. At 10% market penetration, this program alone would get the U.S. 21% of the required 114 million tons. At 30% penetration, more than 60% of the requirement will have been met.
