Ever curious how much

in a 24hr period you can get? Well I did, so using a graduated bucket I measured.
I have a TT Solo 60 on CIBB & Smart 30 indirect, HL is about 45-50K, my D/T is -06F & my max OD reset is set at 126F, no setback.
In this 24hr period the outdoor temp fluctuated between 0 to 15F, the unit ran constantly.
My pail collected just over 5 US gallons.
That`s alot of water!!

That sounds about right..

When we first fired up our Vitodens 6-24, the first night I did not have the neutralizer and drain finished. We collected about five gallons that first night in a bucket, before the "plumbing side" was finished.

It was in the low 30's so was condensing very well.

Remember, you can get about a gallon per hour of water per therm input. I would not drink it but it was said on The Wall that it is very good for blueberries and other acid-loving plants.

5 gal

Thats what we get: around 5 gal in 24hr. Its more now, its 6 outside so its dripping quite good.
