Default Green Heat

I just heard about this and knew that it is something that more people should know about, especially in an effort to go green.

Its green heat. In other words a much better way to heat your home that not only is helpful to the environment but also help to decrease the costs of utility bills.

As we all know reducing the amount we spend to make sure that we stay warm during the winter can be a huge amount, depending on the type of heat that you have.


Check this out for yourself and I am sure that you will agree that this is a great way to help the planet all the while helping to save the wallets of everyone who have this freewatt systems

I just read some of the literature on this and have to wonder how expensive it would be to have something like this installed?

Would it actually be worth the change over in the long run. What is your take on this?

From what I have read of this, I do get the impression that it is expensivem though the savings over time will pay for the installation. They do mention that there is a savings of around $1,000 per year using a free watt system.

Though one thing that I do not know is what the actual price of these systems are. This is something I wish that they would have included among all of the other information that they offer on the website.

Though I still have to say that with everything that I have read about this, I would say that it would be worth the cost of having it installed because it would be an energy saver and of course help the planet out all the while helping to keep a home warm.

I read up on this system, but like you, I didnt find anything about the cost of the system and cost of installation.

I find that very irritating to say the least, and something that piques my interest then gives no price is something that has always irritated me.

Ok I did a little more research on this but answers aren't something that are easy to come by when it comes to the freewatt systems.

However I did read something that never mentions freewatt systems but talked about a system that is quite similar to the freewatt system. It said that the cost of this system runs around $13,500, and if you live on the eastern side of the U.S there is a $2,000 rebate because it fits into energy efficient programs.

Though I am not posititve that this information is correct, because as I said it never mentioned the name freewatt in the article, so don't hold me to that.

This is pretty much what it would cost to have a high end furnance installed in a home, though the difference is that the free watt system is designed to actually turn your electric meter backwards which can and will save money while heating a home.

Here is what I think... yeah get ready, I feel a light bulb moment coming on rofl!

The government just put us into debt beyond any reason whatsoever trying to get the economy back on it's feet. Here is what they should have done with that money.

They should have given each house in the United States solar panels. They could have created the factories to make them, giving tons of jobs to the unemployed and helped Americans with utility costs, including heating and cooling, and helped the enviroment as well. Three birds with one stone and all that!

The cost to buy and have the panels installed is beyond what most people can afford. With the trillions of dollars that the government blew they could have done this and it would have had positive lasting effects for everyone.
