Improving the envelope is particularly important for geo heating and cooling. It makes sense to include that in the budget for a geo install.

I had a geo system installed last December (GeoComfort with 3 200 foot wells for a 120 year old, 1600 sqft house).

The system works great except that the point where the aux heat kicks in for my house is 25 degrees F. I am working this year to improve the envelope to reduce the need for aux heat.
