On December 5th, 2016 one of the 315 litre (83 gallon) Sanden units stopped operating after the printed circuit board (PCB) failed.1 After the heat pump stopped operating the participant continued to draw 189 litres (50 gallons) over a 40 hour period before hot water temperature fell below 38°C (100°F).2 A previous demand response study (Sullivan et al., 2015)3 also found that the 315 litre Sanden could deliver water at 49°C (120°F) hot water temperature for 12 hours after the system was powered off with a much higher simulated water draw of 492 litres per day (130 gallons). The 315 L Sanden tank has more than enough thermal storage to maintain hot water temperature during a four-hour demand response event. Based on tank size and water temperature, the smaller Sanden and two Rheem units also likely have sufficient capacity for a four-hour demand response event. The Rheem units also comes standard with the EcoNet interface which according to the manufacturer is “future-compatible with demand-response system”.

The unit was quickly replaced by Sanden and the issue has been resolved in the 3rd generation units (GS3). For more information see the installation details of Rossland Site 3 in Section 10.3. 2 The participant continued to draw hot water after the 40-hour period and did not contact Fortis BC about the loss of hot water until nearly 3 days after the unit failed. 3 Sullivan, G.; Petersen, J.; 2015.
