New Home Tours Start in the Basement: Dandelion Brings Geothermal Mainstream

Geothermal should be an easy sell. It is quiet, efficient, comfortable, and cheap to run once installed. The problem has been the upfront cost of putting it in the ground.

Dandelion spent years proving residential geothermal could work house by house. Now CEO Dan Yates is taking it into new home construction, where whole developments can be built with geothermal from the start.

Dandelion’s partnership with Lennar in Colorado puts geothermal into 1,500 homes. Not luxury homes — starter homes, entry-level homes, homes for everyday Americans. At that scale, the cost to a builder can compete with conventional HVAC. In some cases, it can beat it.

New federal tax rules also opened the door to geothermal leasing, turning a large upfront expense into a small monthly payment for homebuyers.

In this episode, Dan explains why new home tours now start in the basement and how Dandelion is bringing geothermal into the mainstream.
