D. Storage Water Heater Sizing and Connections
Storage water heaters are necessary with EarthLinked
®
radiant panel hydronic heating and
chilled water cooling systems, as illustrated in Figures 3, 5 and 6.
ETI Models 60, 80 or 119 GSTE storage water heaters are configured specifically for
hydronic heating and chilled water cooling and meet all requirements for these applications.
Recommended water storage heater capacities are shown in Figure 8b, based on the
nominal tonnage of the compressor
unit specified. Typical water heater plumbing
connections are illustrated in Figure 8c.
