I've been interested in ICFs and geotherm for awhile, and want to build in the next 2-3 years.

Is your whole house ICF? How are your heating bills.

Our house and out-building are both built with ICF. Heating, AC and hot water run about $1,000.00/year. Both buildings plus the heated garage run a little over 3500 sq. ft.

#1. Make sure your installer has done eight or ten geothermal systems before you take his bid.

#2. Get the heated floor option. There is absolutely nothing better.
