About ThermoVault™
At ThermoVault™, we are redefining how buildings store and use energy. Our patented Thermal Energy Storage Foundation (TESF) transforms an ordinary concrete slab into a dynamic, AI‑optimized thermal battery—storing clean energy below your feet and using it to intelligently heat and cool your space for decades.
Through years of R&D and real‑world validation at our Pioneer House and Tiny House test sites, we’ve proven that deep thermal performance doesn’t require deep wells. Unlike traditional geothermal systems, TESF integrates thermal storage directly into the building’s foundation, cutting costs, eliminating boreholes, and qualifying for 30% federal tax credits (Sections 25D / 48).
We continue to advance our research with North Dakota State University (NDSU) and are actively pursuing USDA and NSF grants to expand the technology’s applications.
More Than a Foundation
While TESF is at the core of our vision, our product ecosystem can improve the efficiency of any hydronic heating or cooling system—whether in new construction or retrofit applications.
-
ZoneBoard™ – A plug‑and‑play hydronic manifold with integrated flow meters, actuators, and sensors. It simplifies installation and makes radiant heating control easier and more precise—whether paired with TESF or added to an existing hydronic system.
-
VaultCore™ AI Controller – A GPT‑enhanced smart controller that learns a building’s usage patterns, manages zone flow, and shifts heating/cooling to off‑peak hours. It can operate independently of TESF, upgrading legacy radiant systems into intelligent, demand‑responsive assets.
-
VaultCloud™ SaaS Platform – A cloud‑based design and optimization suite for builders, energy co‑ops, and contractors. It models heating/cooling loads, sizes slabs or storage, and provides remote performance analytics—enabling both new projects and retrofits to achieve unprecedented efficiency.
Why It Matters
-
✅ 30% Federal Tax Credit Eligible when installed as part of a qualifying HVAC system
-
✅ 1.5¢/kWh LCOS – beating the DOE 2030 target by 70%
-
✅ Retrofit‑Ready – ZoneBoard™, VaultCore™, and VaultCloud™ can modernize existing buildings without a full TESF installation
-
✅ Proven and Patent‑Protected – backed by field data, not just theoretical models
Our Vision
Homes and buildings must become smarter, more efficient, and more sustainable—without requiring expensive, disruptive overhauls.
At ThermoVault™, your foundation, your heating system, or your retrofit project can all become part of the energy solution. Whether building new, upgrading an older property, or deploying at commercial scale, ThermoVault™ delivers a modular path to comfort, efficiency, and grid‑smart energy use.
Build better. Retrofit smarter. Live sustainably—with ThermoVault™
