Re: [RE-wrenches] boiler on inverter
I hear there are some Gas Boilers that don't use electricity at all.. So when a zone calls for heat, the circulator fires and wakes up the inverter.. and of course, I do know of folks that just can't let their system sleep in the first place.Dan BrownFoxfire Energy Corp.Renewable Energy Systems(802)-483-2564www.Foxfire-Energy.comNABCEP #092907-44 Original Message Subject: [RE-wrenches] boiler on inverter From: Peter Talmage ptalm...@yahoo.com Date: Wed, October 20, 2010 8:40 am To: re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org I have a customer who wants to use a wall mount gas boiler on their independent power system. Does anyone have any experience with wall mount gas boilers that can wake up a sleeping Trace 4024 inverter and operate correctly? What would the electrical power usage be during operation?

Re: [RE-wrenches] boiler on inverter
Peter - I would not rely on the inverter coming out of sleep if heat is critical for the dwelling. Most wall mounted boilers' have a 5-20 watt low voltage transformer that is an additional load too. Add a module or two and sleep well at night.

Re: [RE-wrenches] boiler on inverter
Peter, We had a client with a SW 4024 and his system was trying to power a new Buderus boiler. The boiler controller didn't like the power quality. We cleaned up that circuit with a capacitor and has been working great since. We didn' have a sleeping issue, but he did have quite a few phantom loads.
