What does geothermal mean for the environment?

Geothermal systems work with nature, not against it. They emit no greenhouse gases – which have been linked to pollution, acid rain, and other environmental hazards. WaterFurnace’s earth-loop antifreeze will not harm the environment in the unlikely event of a leak. And all of the current WaterFurnace product lines use R-410A, a performance-enhancing refrigerant that will not harm the earth’s ozone layer.
