Geothermal
- 12 wells, each 500 feet deep
- 2 alternating pumps, located in basement
Cogeneration
- Yanmar 10kw unit runs 24/7, producing electricity (sold to grid) and hot water (for heating)
- Electricity is billed on a net-metered basis: Electricity consumed minus electricity produced by co-gen is the amount Eversource bills
- Hot water is a by product and is utilized to heat various units, including heating system, pool/spa and in ground snow-melt systems. This is accomplished via a heat exchange unit
- Hot water is stored in a large water tank in utility room and augmented with two large rapid recovery hot water heating units if necessary for heat, separate from rapid recovery hot water heaters for non-heating purposes (such as faucets)
- The unit uses natural gas as it’s fuel, which is purchased from CNG at a reduced rate. The rest of the home uses natural gas at standard rates
Radiant Heat
- All floor surfaces in Main House and Guesthouse provide radiant heat
Forced Hot Air
- System augments radiant system when bringing temperature up rapidly (say after temp had been lowered during a vacation)
Air Conditioning
- Forced air, via same system as forced hot air, based upon geothermal, that eliminates need for condensers (either indoor or outdoor)
Humidification
- Important for comfort and reduces millwork contraction during winter. Augmented because house is “tight”
Dehumidification
- Important for comfort in summer; reduces demand for air conditioning
Information provided by Owner. Subject to errors and omissions.
- Energy Recovery Ventilation system constantly circulates fresh air; particularly important for “tight” homes
Registers
- All supply and return registers (excluding a few in basement) are linear, which distribute air more evenly and are architecturally more attractive
Control System
- Runs on a building management computer control system, with algorithms monitored and programable offsite
- System utilizes over 250 sensors
- Controllable directly via 4 in-house touch screens as well as Savant system which provides access through iPhone and iPad
