Geothermal as a Solution with IGSHPA’s Jeff Hammond

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 will have huge implications for geothermal drilling and HVAC, and the contractors installing these systems.

That offers some amount of dependability that you can get a return on investments in geothermal. To make sense of it all, we spoke to Jeff Hammond, executive director of the International Ground Source Heat Pump Association (IGSHPA).
