Designed · Drilled · Commissioned
Ground source heat pump systems for commercial, institutional and residential buildings. Engineered to the Canadian standard, sized to the building's real annual balance, and honest about when a cheaper system would serve you better.
On a commercial ground source project most of the cost is in the ground, and the ground qualifies. That makes this the largest single credit available on any building measure in Canada — and it runs to 31 December 2033.

Three questions. We will say no when the answer is no.
What we do
A loop field is the one part of a building system you cannot easily revisit. Once the bores are grouted and the slab is back down, an undersized field stays undersized. So the sequence matters more here than on anything else we install.
Access, geology, services, setbacks and what the site will actually permit. The answer is occasionally that this building should not have a ground loop at all.
Before design, not afterA test bore, instrumented and run long enough to measure how quickly the ground gives up and takes back heat. On a commercial field this is not optional engineering.
Measured, not assumedHeating and cooling hours across a full year. A field sized for peak heating in a building that also rejects heat all summer is a different field entirely.
Annual balance, not peak loadSchools, long-term care, municipal buildings. Steady load, long horizons, and an owner who will still be there in twenty-five years. The profile the technology was built for.
30% federal credit appliesWhere simultaneous heating and cooling makes a ground loop do work no air-source system can match — moving heat between zones instead of rejecting it.
Best case: mixed simultaneous loadFor properties with the land and the horizon. No federal credit applies to a house, so the case has to stand on the energy alone — and sometimes it does not.
Honest comparison firstThe standard
"Do you design to CSA C448, and which edition?" It is a fair question, it takes ten seconds, and the answers will separate your bidders faster than anything else you could ask.
Why it matters commercially, not just technically. An undersized loop field does not announce itself. The system works, the client is happy, and then several seasons in the ground has not fully recovered between cycles and the capacity is simply not there on the coldest week. By then the fix is another drilling programme, on an occupied building. What the standard covers →
