Residential thermal storage heating

Evaluate thermal storage as a heating, peak-control, airflow and distribution system rather than a simple electric resistance heater.

VERT / GREEN

Compare heating profile, existing central system and available space before quoting.

JAUNE / YELLOW

Integration with a heat pump, ducts, electrical service and rate structure must be designed together.

ROUGE / RED

Unknown electrical capacity, inadequate ducts or equipment outside program criteria: do not build the project around assumed incentives.

Interactive triage

Existing central system
Document capacity, ducts and controls. Heat-pump pairing planned
Verify compatibility, airflow and controls. Electrical service near limit
Have capacity assessed before purchase. Incentive assumed
Verify current LogisVert eligibility and approved installers/equipment when planning.
