Mechanical systems info: To maintain a comfortable inside temperature within the building, while still being environmentally aware, we have installed a Geothermal Ground-source Heat pump. This utilizes the heating and cooling energy of the ground instead of relying on fossil fuels and electricity for our heating and cooling needs.
Other green features: With the ever-increasing cost of energy and the increasing awareness of alternative, environmentally friendly building practices, Spirit Tree Estate Cidery has taken a leadership role by being the first winery production facility and agricultural building to utilize straw bale construction methods in Ontario.
