So in your opinion there aren't too many good geothermal installers because they don't know what they are doing. A lot of them just read a book and then go into the business. Consequently in your opinion there are more bad installers then good ones.

I stopped reading your post from that point on.

It's OK to separate your workmanship from your competitors and to educate your customers about the differences between how you do things, however just to say "there are more bad installers then good ones" is not a very tactful way of communicating your differences.
