The TurboMax 50-3 groups both functions around a single heating unit. The boiler, already sized for the house, supplies the energy; the indirect tank turns it into domestic hot water, without the heating water and the potable water ever mixing. The day the old water heater reaches the end of its life is often the best time to make this change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eManufacturer’s data\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 US gallons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeat exchanger:\u003c\/strong\u003e copper coils, exchange surface of 19.6 sq. ft.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAt 110 °F:\u003c\/strong\u003e maximum exchange capacity of 380,000 BTU\/h (111 kW); 703 US GPH first hour; 653 US GPH continuous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAt 140 °F:\u003c\/strong\u003e maximum exchange capacity of 270,000 BTU\/h (79 kW); 346 US GPH first hour; 326 US GPH continuous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAt 160 °F:\u003c\/strong\u003e maximum exchange capacity of 180,000 BTU\/h (53 kW); 190 US GPH first hour; 181 US GPH continuous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTest conditions:\u003c\/strong\u003e domestic cold water at 40 °F, boiler water at 180 °F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum domestic hot water flow:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9 gpm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum pressure:\u003c\/strong\u003e 150 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConnections:\u003c\/strong\u003e potable water 1 1\/2 in male sweat; boiler 1 1\/4 in NPT male\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e height 60 3\/4 in, diameter 22 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 212 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the 50 US gallon reserve brings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the manufacturer’s table, first-hour output exceeds continuous output: 703 US GPH versus 653 US GPH for water at 110 °F. This gap comes from the energy already stored in the tank when the demand begins. In practice, this reserve covers the start of the peak: the first morning shower, the children’s bath, a laundry load started at the same time. After that, output depends on what the boiler supplies continuously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eReading the 110 °F, 140 °F and 160 °F temperatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThermo 2000 gives its values for three domestic hot water temperatures. The 110 °F column corresponds to the mixed water of a shower. The 140 °F column corresponds to hotter produced water, brought back to a safe temperature with a \u003cstrong\u003ethermostatic mixing valve\u003c\/strong\u003e. The 160 °F column concerns particular uses. The hotter the water required, the lower the hourly output: at 140 °F, the TurboMax 50-3 delivers 346 US GPH in the first hour, and 190 US GPH at 160 °F. We set the temperature according to your use, keeping comfort and safety in mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe boiler’s capacity sets the real output\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe published flows assume that the boiler supplies the exchanger’s maximum exchange capacity, that is 380,000 BTU\/h (111 kW) at 110 °F. A residential electric boiler supplies much less. The tank then works the same way, but continuous output follows the boiler’s capacity. The manufacturer adds that these values must be reduced for high-temperature and continuous-flow applications. We therefore do the calculation from your boiler, and we usually program \u003cstrong\u003ehot water priority\u003c\/strong\u003e so that the boiler devotes itself to the tank for a few minutes before returning to heating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation in the basement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 60 3\/4 in high and 22 in in diameter, the TurboMax 50-3 is installed beside the boiler in most basements. It weighs 212 lb empty; once filled, it must sit on a solid, level floor, near a drain. Potable water connects in 1 1\/2 in male sweat and the boiler in 1 1\/4 in NPT male. The tank drain valve, supplied as standard, is used during periodic maintenance. The 9 gpm maximum domestic hot water flow guides the choice of distribution piping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eManufacturer’s warranty\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThermo 2000 provides a \u003cstrong\u003e15-year residential warranty\u003c\/strong\u003e, a \u003cstrong\u003e10-year commercial warranty\u003c\/strong\u003e and a \u003cstrong\u003e2-year warranty on mechanical components\u003c\/strong\u003e.
