13.105 Test Procedure: NA7.10.1 Electric Resistance Underfloor Heating Systems

 

Construction Inspection

The Field Technician should review that the summer on-peak period is programmed into the electric resistance underfloor heating systems.

 

Functional Testing

Step 1: Using the control system, lower the underfloor temperature setpoint to cycle off the electric resistance heater.

Verify and Document:

      Measure the current of the electric heater circuits(s) to confirm the electric resistance heater circuit is off. 

Step 2: Using the control system, raise the underfloor temperature setpoint to cycle on the electric resistance heater.

Verify and Document:

      Measure the current of the electric heater circuits(s) to confirm the electric resistance heater circuit is on. 

Step 3: Using the control system, change the control system’s date and time to correspond to the local utility company summer on-peak period.

Verify and Document:

      Measure the current of the electric heater circuits(s) to confirm the electric resistance heater circuit is off. 

Step 4: Restore the control system to correct date and time, and underfloor temperature control setpoints.

Confirm that the control system is restored back to correct date and time, and that the control system is restored to the initial conditions for the underfloor temperature setpoint and schedules.
