It produces 20 kW, or 68,288 BTU\/h at 240 V, with four 5 kW elements split into two stages: 10 kW on the first, 20 kW on the second. It is aimed at large houses and older homes with high heating needs, once that need is confirmed by an on-site assessment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt differs from the PSC version by its 1\/2 HP Ecotech ECM motor with five speeds. Conforto sets it at the factory to HIGH speed for heating; at 0.5 in of water column, the manufacturer’s table then gives 1,200 CFM, and up to 1,275 CFM at 0.2 in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA well-protected electrical section\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA furnace of this output draws a lot of current, and Conforto’s controls combine several safeguards: staged elements and heavy-duty relays, redundant high limits, surge and brownout protection, and a control board with a replaceable fuse. If something goes wrong, LED diagnostics guide the technician, and the programmable DIP switches adapt the operation to the installation. The cabinet is fully insulated, and Conforto states that its furnaces are made in Canada.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor everyday comfort, ComfortMax analyzes each cycle and modulates the elements to limit short cycles, while QuietComfort preheats recirculated air at low energy. A 24 VAC output accepts accessories such as a central humidifier, welcome during the dry winter months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBefore installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConforto calls for a 240 V single-phase circuit with a 110 A minimum circuit ampacity, a breaker of no more than 125 A and 3 AWG wire. In a home in \u003cstrong\u003eLongueuil\u003c\/strong\u003e or on the \u003cstrong\u003eNorth Shore\u003c\/strong\u003e, we assess the electrical service before any recommendation. The 20 x 21 in cabinet installs upright, in downflow or horizontally on the right side, and accepts an air conditioner or heat pump coil of up to 3 tons. Sold alone, the furnace is not a heat pump and does not qualify for the LogisVert grant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation by AirGreen\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.
