Thermo 2000’s AltSource 70-12 meets that need, and the manufacturer warrants it for both uses: 15 years on the tank and coils in residential use, 10 years in commercial use, and 2 years on electrical and mechanical components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the AltSource 70-12 contains\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a thermal mass electric boiler, which Thermo 2000 presents as the only high water volume electric boiler on the market. Its tank holds 71 US gal of water. Its 12 kW output at 240 V, or 40,944 BTU\/h, comes from two 6 kW elements that come on in two stages. Water is heated from 50 °F to 190 °F (10 °C to 88 °C), a range that covers radiant floors as well as baseboards and radiators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe T2 UltraSmart controller, supplied with its outdoor sensor, modulates output and water temperature on the outdoor temperature, shuts heating off in warm weather and offers a Boost mode. It runs in standalone electric mode by default or in automatic transfer on an external contact, and provides 24 V power for accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation in an existing building\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the electrical side, Thermo 2000 lists 50 A at 240 V, a 70 A breaker and Cu 6 \/ Al 4 wire gauge. If your space has a 208 V supply, output becomes 9 kW at 43.5 A: this is a point we check from the first visit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the hydronic side, the AltSource 70 connects in 1 1\/4 in male NPT and operates at a maximum pressure of 30 psi. The manufacturer recommends a #60 expansion tank with baseboards or a radiant floor, and a #90 with cast-iron radiators. The unit weighs 380 lb before filling and measures 24 in in diameter and 28 in deep with the door: the location and access must be planned accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAirGreen’s support\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe on-site estimate is free.
