Redmond, Oregon
Elegant Tuscany style 2950 ft2 home with numerous energy efficient systems.

Radiant Floor Heating
This open loop radiant floor system uses a Takagi T-M1 as the heat source driving through a secondary loop manifold system that includes an outdoor reset for energy conservation.  Mixing is through an injection system with Tekmar reset control.  Wirsbo TruFLOW series manifolds were installed for the various zones throughout the house.  The lower floor is slab on grade while the upper floor is 1 1/2" Gypsum underlayment.

Solar Hot Water
The DayStar Solar Hot Water system consists of three Heliodyne Gobi 410 collector and an HP-16 heat exchanger coupled to two 119 gallon storage tanks.  This system qualified for the State of Oregon Solar Hot Water Tax Credit.

3 kW Grid Tied PV System
18 Isofoton 165 watt PV modules are mounted on the southerly facing roof below the hot water panels furnishing power to a PV Powered StarInverter PVP 2800-XV.  SunEarth CompRail PV mounting system was used for this application enhancing the look as well as reducing the installation time.
