

GARN has made off- peak heating equipment since the early 1980’s. Off-peak heating works well with GARN wood equipment because the thermal storage is already built into the unit. Although the specific configurations of the GARN electric heating controls and packaging has been revised over the years, the operational philosophy and the way in which the controls physically interact with the utility has remained nearly unchanged. That means, that this manual can be applied to virtually any electric heating equipment system GARN has ever produced. But, the manual is specifically tailored towards the most recent revisions of controls and packaging. B. EQUIPMENT, COMPONENTS, AND CONTROLS OVERVIEW: Every GARN® WHS is shipped with threaded electric element flanges in the lower-right corner of the front head/face of the unit (on the WHS-3200, the flanges are located on the rear head of the unit). The flanges provide the opportunity to purchase the electric heating package and turn the GARN® WHS unit into an electric heating system. Electric heating can be used in conjunction with wood heating to provide a dual-fuel heating system. There are 3 electric heating package sizes to choose from. The correct size for your application depends on the utility/coop off-peak electric program, heating load, and GARN WHS unit size.
