The Dandelion Air is a smart, all-in-one home heating and air conditioning system. It is over four times more efficient than any furnace on the market<sup>1<\/sup>. It is also nearly twice as efficient as a conventional air conditioning system<sup>2<\/sup>. The Dandelion Air\u2019s efficiency comes from tapping into the ground as a heat source or sink.<\/p>\n<p>The Dandelion Air is being sold as part of complete Dandelion Home Geothermal System for less than $20,000<sup>3<\/sup>, about half the cost of traditional geothermal installations. The company is also offering no-money-down loans, and payments starting at $135 per month over a 20-year term. A typical homeowner who switches from heating oil to the Dandelion Air for no-money-down is expected save ~20% annually on the cost of heating and cooling their home<sup>4<\/sup>.

Fuel free, the Dandelion Air eliminates risk of carbon monoxide poisoning and improves indoor air quality. The complete Dandelion Home Geothermal System includes the installation of underground pipes, a buffer tank for hot water, a Nest Learning Thermostat, and a smart monitoring system. The system\u2019s smart features ensure the system is running with optimal efficiency and homeowners will save as much money as possible over time. The system has a 20+ year life expectancy.<\/p>\n<p>Dandelion chose AAON (NASDAQ: AAON), a heat pump manufacturer with over 30 years of HVAC manufacturing experience, as its production partner. AAON water-source heat pumps provide heating and cooling to tens of thousands of buildings. The company employs over 2,000 people in the United States and is headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to partner with AAON on the Dandelion Air,\u201d said James Quazi, Co-Founder &amp; Chief Technology Officer of Dandelion. \u201cAAON uses state-of-the-art automation technology for precise, time-efficient production of each unit.
