As the demand for energy continues to grow each year, it should be no surprise that the importance of energy consumption and efficiency has become more critical.  With the cost of electricity expected to rise in the future due to federal regulations in support of climate change; energy efficiency is quickly becoming the cheapest and fastest way to cut energy bills while reducing carbon pollution.

Here at Rabe Hardware, we’ve seen a steady shift in homeowner’s attitudes towards energy efficiency.  More and more customers are asking for energy solutions that will lower operating costs in an environmentally responsible way.  And for nearly two decades, Rabe Hardware has been a leader at delivering homeowner savings up to 70% on annual utility bills with geothermal.

Geothermal systems, also known as Ground Source Heat Pumps (GSHP), transfer heat versus burning fuel to create it.  This efficient use of energy transfer makes geothermal heating and cooling systems 400% efficient.  Compare that to 98% efficiency on the most efficient gas furnace available today.

Rabe Hardware has made it a priority to educate homeowners and businesses on the energy efficiency and potential energy savings associated with geothermal; but more recently, we’ve also begun offering solar panel installations as another energy savings solution.

On-site power generation with solar panels has become an increasingly popular choice for homeowners and businesses looking to reduce or completely eliminate electric bills.  A solar panel installation produces clean, cost-efficient energy harnessed by the sun so you can lock in your energy costs, add value to your home, and help the environment.

Over the last 10 years, the cost to install solar panels has dropped by more than 70% while the technology and durability has improved.  Due to these factors, on-site power generation with solar panels is a more economical energy solution with a shorter payback.  As the saying goes – Solar isn’t for everyone… only those that use electricity!

Don’t get stuck with high energy costs!  With geothermal, solar or maybe a combination of both; homeowners and businesses will see instant savings on energy costs while also making a significant impact on the environment.  Here at Rabe Hardware, we have energy savings solutions you can feel good about investing in.
