Hi, JHAP. Thanks for the kind words! After the second pond, I am going to be turning my attention to major changes to the structure of the house. At that time I am going to be installing geothermal solutions for both summer and winter.
One of my colleagues is pretty experienced in this type of thing, so I will be drawing some on his expertise. My hope is to get a base-line constant heat established in the house year round, and then supplement it with wood heat in the winter (I love the glow of wood warmth). To be frank, my main goal is to save as much money as possible on utilities; there is absolutely nothing political or trendy in my motivations, lol.
