As people become more concerned about the environment, eco-friendly solutions are becoming more and more popular.

The exponential growth in air conditioning usage in Australia is quite significant, which has caused many to start looking into the idea of eco-friendly air conditioning solutions.

Some eco-friendly air conditioning options include:

  • Geothermal heat pumps;
  • Solar-powered air conditioning systems;
  • Ice battery power.

Geothermal Heat Pumps

Solutions such as geothermal heat pumps and solar-powered air conditioning units use natural alternatives to artificially-powered systems.

Geothermal heat pumps circulate naturally cooled air from below the Earth’s surface, while solar-powered systems reduce the cost of running air conditioning by utilizing power from the sun.

Ice Battery Power Units

Ice battery power units make ice at night when the air is colder, and then use that ice to help reduce the amount of power needed to cool a building.

Ice power is still in the experimental stages, but it could save a homeowner a lot of money some day.

Why Is ECO Friendly Important

 

So why do people utilize these eco-friendly air conditioning systems?

When you understand the benefits of these eco-friendly air conditioning units, then you will start to see why they are becoming so popular throughout Australia and the world.

Reduces Energy Bills

 

Utilizing eco-friendly air conditioning systems reduces your energy bills in a few different ways, including:

  • Reduces the power needed to operate the pumping system;
  • Reduces the power needed to cool the air;
  • Conserves cool air and energy to be used later.

Since many people in Australia would argue that air conditioning is mandatory, the ability to save money on energy bills by using eco-friendly solutions is appealing.

Consult an air conditioning professional to find out exactly how the alternative air conditioning system you are considering can save you money on your energy bills.

Reduces Harmful Emissions

 

When you reduce how much energy you utilize, you are reducing the amount of harmful emissions that are put into the atmosphere by the power plants in your area.

But air conditioning units also give off their own emissions and many of these eco-friendly solutions reduce or eliminate those emissions completely.

For example, a geothermal heat pump system recirculates cool air from underground and does not generate any cool air of its own. This process does not give off any emissions and is extremely safe for the environment.

Longer Lifespan

Geothermal heat pumps and ice battery power systems tend to last much longer than traditional central air systems or window units. It is estimated that geothermal heat pumps can last as long as 30 years because of the lack of moving parts.

Some companies even offer 50-year warranties on the parts associated with geothermal heat pump systems.

If we stay focused on the geothermal heat pump system, we will see that another reason these last so long is because there are no external parts.

Every part of the system is installed in the home, which protects it from the elements and extends its life.

Quieter Operation

 

If you have tried to cool your house with a series of window air conditioners, then you know how loud that solution can be. Even central air systems and duct systems can be quite loud, especially at night when your family is trying to sleep.

Eco-friendly air conditioning units tend to be much quieter, even when they are operating at full capacity.

For example, the lack of moving parts on a geothermal heat pump system means that there are less ways for the system to make noise. It is a system that can distribute cool or warm air throughout your house without waking up your family.

ECO Friendly Is A Good Long Term Investment

When the time comes to consider a new air conditioning system for your home, you will want to put some serious thought into an eco-friendly system. Since an eco-friendly system saves you money on your energy bills, it can pay for itself over time.

An eco-friendly system will also cool your home and keep your family comfortable without the tremendous noise that usually accompanies an air conditioning system.
