North American Technician Excellence (NATE) and the International Ground Source Heat Pump Association (IGSHPA) announced an agreement that enables the current IGSHPA Accredited Installer Exam to be administered and processed by NATE. As a result, all technicians who successfully complete the IGSHPA/NATE exam will be "NATE Certified/IGSHPA Accredited Installers." This agreement aims to hold heating, ventilation, air-conditioning and refrigeration (HVACR) practitioners to a higher standard and further promotes industry excellence.


The federal government has announced beginning in 2009, it will be offering a 30% residential energy tax credit towards the cost of installing a new geothermal heat pump as a way to heat and cool homes.

For commercial applications the tax credit is 10% of installation cost.

The tax credit will be available until the year ending 2016.
