It still needs a backup, and that is the role Thermo 2000 gives the AltSource: a thermal mass electric boiler that serves as the backup source of a renewable-energy heating system. The manufacturer presents it as the only high water volume electric boiler on the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AltSource 50-7.5 combines a 48 US gal tank with 7.5 kW of output at 240 V, or 25,590 BTU\/h according to Thermo 2000. The output is split between two elements, one of 3 kW and one of 4.5 kW, which come on in two stages. It is a mid-range size, designed for a mid-size house whose main source does most of the work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe controller does the fine work\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe T2 UltraSmart controller and its outdoor sensor are supplied. They set output and water temperature according to the outdoor temperature, shut heating off in warm weather and offer a Boost mode. The controller runs in standalone electric mode, the default setting, or in automatic transfer controlled by an external contact: we choose the mode based on how your main source is connected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it fits a home in Laval or on the North Shore\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake a split-level house in \u003cstrong\u003eLaval\u003c\/strong\u003e or on the \u003cstrong\u003eNorth Shore\u003c\/strong\u003e, heated by a radiant floor on two levels and an air-to-water heat pump. The AltSource 50-7.5 goes in the mechanical room: 22 in in diameter, 25 1\/2 in deep with the door, 56 7\/16 in high and 280 lb before filling. It connects to the loop through 1 in male NPT fittings and operates at a maximum pressure of 30 psi.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe electrical circuit calls for a 40 A breaker and Cu 8 \/ Al 6 wire gauge at 240 V, according to Thermo 2000. In a building with a 208 V supply, output becomes 5.6 kW (27.2 A). For the expansion tank, the manufacturer recommends a #30 with baseboards or a radiant floor, and a #60 with cast-iron radiators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOur installation, step by step\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree on-site estimate: main source, hot-water loop, electrical panel and space.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten quote that specifies the unit, circulator, expansion tank and electrical work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting the unit in place, connecting it to the loop and mounting the outdoor sensor and supplied accessories.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectrical connection, filling, purging and controller setup, then a check with you.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAirGreen is a family business established in \u003cstrong\u003eMontreal\u003c\/strong\u003e for more than fifteen years, holding RBQ licence 5645-9605-01 in ventilation, refrigeration and electrical work.
