INTRODUCTION
The ecosmart hydronic furnace is designed to maximize performance and comfort in residential
or light commercial applications. The ecosmart can be used with a variety of heat sources such
as boilers and water heaters and can be implemented in combo systems that provide domestic
hot water as well as space heating.
Smart control systems within the ecosmart allow extraction of maximum heat by allowing
condensing high efficiency heat sources to work at their maximum efficiency while providing
ultimate comfort with unmatched performance.
Simple, independent heat/cool and system parameters can easily be set by the installer to
adjust for a wide variety of installations. Various parameters are automatically monitored and
fan and pump speeds vary simultaneously. The ecosmart has a built-in variable speed pump
controller that can vary the speed of a standard single speed AC pump.
MODES
OF
OPERATION
Three modes of operation are available:
1. Full modulation – full control of fan and pump (requires outdoor temperature sensor).
2. Step modulation – timed fan and pump sequencing.
3. Single stage – standard furnace emulation.
Modulating Mode
(ecosmart outdoor sensor installed)
Water temperature is set at the heat generator by referring to the heat generator performance
data. It is best to maintain constant water temperature at the heat generator.
If the heat generator comes with an optional outdoor temperature sensor do not
install it as it will conflict with the ecosmart control.
