With 18 kW, or 61,460 BTU\/h at 240 V, it targets two-storey houses, cottages and older homes whose heating calculation exceeds what a 15 kW model covers. A 1\/3 HP three-speed PSC motor distributes the warm air through the ductwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite its output, it keeps the same 20 x 21 in cabinet as the smaller sizes in the series, which makes replacing an old furnace in an existing mechanical space easier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFour elements, two stages: 9 kW, then 18 kW\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts 5, 4, 5 and 4 kW elements are split into two stages. The first brings in 9 kW; the second adds the other two elements to reach 18 kW. The thermostat can be two-stage, in which case it controls each group of elements directly, or single-stage: then ComfortMax judges, cycle after cycle, whether to call on the full 18 kW, while avoiding short cycles. The temperature rise published by Conforto runs from 55 to 75 °F.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA 100 A circuit: the question to settle first\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt this output, electricity comes before everything else. Conforto calls for a 100 A minimum circuit ampacity, a breaker of no more than 100 A and 3 AWG wire. In a home on the \u003cstrong\u003eNorth Shore\u003c\/strong\u003e or in \u003cstrong\u003eLongueuil\u003c\/strong\u003e that already has an electric range, dryer and water heater, we work out the load before recommending this model. If the electrical service needs to be increased, the written quote says so clearly, with no surprises during the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor summer, the furnace accepts an air conditioner or heat pump coil of up to 3 tons. If the house needs more cooling, we will tell you and propose another approach. Reminder: sold alone, the furnace is not a heat pump and does not qualify for the LogisVert grant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat our installation includes\u003c\/h3\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 for ventilation, refrigeration and electrical work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree estimate: heating needs, ductwork condition, electrical load review\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten quote, including any electrical upgrade required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpright, downflow or right-side horizontal installation, depending on the space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e240 V circuit in 3 AWG wire, thermostat and commissioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperature rise check and installation of the supplied 20 x 20 x 1 in filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe work in \u003cstrong\u003eMontreal\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eLaval\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eLongueuil\u003c\/strong\u003e, on the \u003cstrong\u003eNorth Shore\u003c\/strong\u003e and on the \u003cstrong\u003eSouth Shore\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTo find out whether 18 kW is the right size and whether your panel can keep up, book a free estimate.
