His work on our system proved that he\u2019s very good at what he does.  His initial assessment of our system\u2019s problems was accurate.  His quote for fixing those problems using high-quality parts and equipment was both accurate and fair.  His almost intuitive sense of geosolar systems let him design piping and valves, program system sensors and controllers for optimum system function, source and install everything and make sure the system works properly. I cannot recommend Andy highly enough!  \t\t                                    <cite>\n                            - by Gillian Arsenault, Salt Spring Island                        <\/cite>\n\t\t                            <\/blockquote>\n\t                        <blockquote>\n\t\t            Our complex ground source geothermal system was originally installed in 2008 and required a more modern control system.  We use an open loop system using water from our well and in the fall we often do not have the required volume for the system to operate. We have a backup electric system but had to operate it manually when the well is low.   Andy installed flow switches in the well to monitor the levels and the latest control systems from Tekmar.  Our system now operates seamlessly and efficiently and we are able to control temperatures in all our zones remotely from our phone or computer.  The new and very complex control system works beautifully and we are very happy with the results.\t\t                                    <cite>\n                            - by Parker Jefferson, Duncan, BC                        <\/cite>\n\t\t                            <\/blockquote>\n\t                        <blockquote>\n\t\t            Andy and his company, Southwest Solar, was referred to us by another geothermal installer and we are so grateful we called him and have been able to avail him of his services for the last few years.
