Installing Thermomate 10gals electric water heater.
Переглядів 161Місяць тому
In this video I will be installing a 10gals Thermomate electric water heater inline with my gas water heater. My goal is to use the excess solar power to preheat the water before it go into the main gas water tank to save from using gas. If anyone is interest in purchasing the tank, you can get it here. www.amazon.com/dp/B0CL9M23XX?th=1

    Switching/breaking the DC current is simple. You have to use 3phase relay (drive coil is connected via thermostat) and all 3 contacts of relay in series connection. And in paralel connection to this series, you have to connect big capacitor with diode. This big capacitor has to be connect paralel to resistor. And how does it work? The thermostat switch via relay all three contacts, after you get desired temperature, the contacs are disconnected. As the prevention of electric arc, there is that capacitor, the diode is the prevention to discharge capacitor to contacts, and finally, the resistor is discharger of capacitor. The simplest solution. No electric arc anymore.

    Great idea for a pre heat tank. What ever happened with the water heater you were running direct from solar panels?

  • @matthewprather7386
    @matthewprather7386 Місяць тому

    It looks like you’re running potable water through the furnace loop.. If so I thought that wouldn’t pass code, at least in many places, because it could set up a situation to cause legionnaires disease. The more expensive tank with the sealed heat exchanger is probably the more cost effective route. Another option would be to build a duplicate system - one for domestic hot water and another for hydronic building heating.

    Why have a critical loads panel? Aren't all loads critical? Just use a transfer switch and run the entire house off grid, 42 kWh should be plenty. Way less expense in breakers panels, conduit and power distribution panels.

      I understand that there's a lot of bad cookies out there. But the manager confirmed they checked upon any return. But what I don't get is why would the manufacturer sealed some box with a seal and tape some? Doesn't make sense. If I am the manufacturer, I would use seal only as that's way harder to fake than retape.
