Getting bids starting on Friday-largest geothermal contractor in state for starters. Over the summer, I had some rough estimates given to me that a good system will run me $12-15k, but geothermal would run $25k. With the full 30% with no cap, my out of pocket cost difference might well be less than an additional $5k out of pocket. Throw in I plan on being here 15+ years, and it sounds like my ROI would do quite nicely.
