Ethan and I got into a conversation about geothermal heating and cooling. He expressed interest in this and learning more about it. With the little I know about it, I explained that it was A system of pipes that circulate a water antifreeze mixture Deep underground in the winter, it extract heat from the Earth to warm the building in in the summer it reverses the process, transferring heat from the building back into the Earth.
I only know this because Paul and I had a conversation about it a few weeks ago and I had zero understanding and did a small bit of reading.
It is supposed to save energy costs.
I told Ethan to start researching grants to cover the cost of this and I would help him apply. Writing isn’t his strong suit (mine either but between the two of us it might be ok).
He also expressed interest in solar panels on his roof. He is not pleased with all of the stuff going on with high energy bills in the area. He grumped about it being a monopoly. He told me things that I didn’t know and it was evident he has been following this with passion. Cool!
Use that brain kid!
We got word that the building is supposed to get insulated next week. Moving forward is better than standing still. Let’s hope the builder makes it happen. What a slow process!
Penny and Jiminy have been snuggling under the blanket laying on the heating pad. They are very cute to have as scenary while I work.
