Edward Powell Pump & Well Drilling
17 B Mt. Pleasant Drive , Aston, Pennsylvania, United States

Edward Powell Pump and Well Drilling, Inc. is backed by nearly 50 years experience in the water well and water treatment industry. After 22 years of experience in the industry, Edward Powell decided to begin his own business. Starting with a little pickup truck, a couple of pumps and tanks, and an honest hard work ethic, his phone began ringing the very first day in business. It has never stopped! Since then, his company has served thousands of customers drilling wells, making repairs on wells, pumps, tanks, and conditioners.  His sons, David, Chris, and son-in-law Brett, took over the reigns in the summer of 1997. Since then, the business has tripled in size and capabilities due to the same determination and ethical practices as their father.  David Powell, president of Edward Powell Pump and Well Drilling is also the co-founder and president of Wells For Relief International, a nonprofit supplying water to impoverished communities in Ghana, West Africa.

Geothermal

Geothermal uses the free and plentiful stored solar energy underground and it’s naturally renewed. It will never run out.  If you live in Delaware County, Chester County or Montgomery County in Pennsylvania as well as New Castle County, Delaware, you could be saving thousands of dollars per year on your heating and cooling expenses by installing a geothermal system in your home.  The Department of Energy and the EPA recognizes geothermal systems as the most environmentally friendly, cost-effective and energy efficient heating and cooling technology available. So you can make a significant contribution to a cleaner environment — while saving up to 60% on your home’s energy bills.

WHAT IS A GROUND SOURCE HEAT PUMP?

Ground source heat pumps (GSHPs) are systems that tap into the stored heat energy of the greatest solar collector in existence: the earth. The earth continually absorbs the sun’s heat and stores it at a relatively constant temperature. Geothermal systems use this free energy to aid in heating and cooling homes and buildings. Accessing this incredible renewable energy source provides for very high comfort at a very low operating cost.  Simply stated, ground source heat pumps work by circulating environmentally friendly antifreeze solution through plastic pipe loops buried beneath the earth’s surface, usually in wells approximately 300 feet deep. During the winter, the fluid collects free heat (temperatures higher than the outside air) and carries it through the system where more heat is efficiently generated by a heat pump. This heat is then used to heat your home or building. During the summer, the system reverses itself to cool the building by pulling heat from the building, carrying it through the loops and placing it in the ground. As a bonus, this process can create free hot water in the summer and deliver substantial hot water saving in the winter.
