Ecombi ARC dynamic storage heater
Ecombi ARC uses energy at off-peak times
Cut down your electricity bill with the new, high retention, dynamic storage heater
Ecombi ARC is a high retention, dynamic storage heater that reduces energy consumption by optimizing heat management. This sort of electrical heating saves on energy, as it charges during off-peak periods, the cheapest tariff times.
It has also been designed to work in conjunction with solar panels. It uses energy surpluses and converts them into heating. This function with solar panels is possible by adding the Solar Box accessory to the installation of the Ecombi ARC storage heaters.
This new model of storage heater assesses your energy consumption to fix the night-time charge and includes a heat discharge control, so the user can enjoy comfort whenever they like. This type of dynamic storage heater can be controlled using wifi via the Elnur Gabarron Wifi Control App, from which you can manage the charging periods, set the operating mode and fix your daily or weekly heating usage, among other functions. Ecombi ARC has been designed to detect the user’s proximity via the location function and is compatible with different voice activation systems such as Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant.

FREQUENT QUESTIONS
- Can Ecombi ARC storage heater be installed in bedrooms?
- Can Ecombi ARC only work with surpluses?
- What should be the maximum distance between Ecombi ARC and the SOLAR Box switchboard?
- If there is not a large enough surplus to charge the storage heater, can I still use Ecombi ARC?
- Is it necessary to connect Ecombi ARC to the App?
- What is Solar Box?
- Is the system compatible with the inverter of my photovoltaic installation?
- Is it possible to select different priorities in each room when distributing the energy?
- Can I see how much solar energy each heater uses?
- Can I set a cap on device use during the off-peak period?
- Does Ecombi ARC require maintenance?
- Does the system take into consideration the temperature in each room?
- Will my solar generation be enough to have heating with Ecombi ARC?
Yes, the Ecombi ARC is designed to quickly heat any type of room. However, it must be taken into account that Ecombi ARC is a dynamic high heat retention storage heater. Heat is transmitted to the room thanks to the in-built low-noise fan and for this reason, many people prefer the installation of a static storage heater in bedrooms, such as Ecombi Plus, which model is totally silent. Anyway, if you wish to heat a bedroom quickly, the Ecombi ARC is also an excellent choice.
Yes, Ecombi ARC can be set to only charge with the surplus energy generated by the self-consumption, photovoltaic installations connected to the network.
The switchboard can be no further than 30 metres away, accounting for about 2 to 3 walls in between.
Each Ecombi ARC storage heater uses radio frequency to communicate with each other. They act as a signal repeater that sends instructions from the app to the storage heater furthest from the switchboard.
If we want to heat the room just with that heater and if there is not enough surplus to meet the demand for temperature, Ecombi ARC can complete the missing charge with the most economical energy from the grid. The equipment will charge in the off-peak period with the hourly tariffs.
To exploit the surpluses in an intelligent way and automatically with the storage heaters, it is essential to connect the Ecombi ARC equipment to our Elnur Gabarron Wifi Control Solar App. It is totally free and available for IOS and Android devices alike.
It is an accessory needed to exploit the surpluses. It is supplied separately from the equipment and it is only necessary to supply one for the entire home, provided the home does not exceed 30 installed equipment units.
Yes, our Solar Manager system is independent from the installation inverter. Therefore, it is universal and valid for any photovoltaic installation.
Yes, via the App it is possible to allocate, room by room, the different levels of priority: HIGH, MEDIUM and LOW. The Solar Manager system will take into account the room temperatures and instructions of each.
Yes. The app shows daily, monthly and annual graphics both of total solar energy surplus use and a room-by-room breakdown. If it is necessary to supplement solar charge with off-peak energy from an electrical network, then consumption at off-peak times is also shown in a graphic.
Yes. If the equipment works in the mode (solar + off-peak), it is possible to mark in the App the maximum, simultaneous capacity of the heater’s electric consumption that we do not want to exceed. In this way, we are able to adjust to the contracted capacity during off-peak hours.
No, as it is a 100% electrical system, there is no combustion in its operation. So, it is a totally safe system and does not require any sort of maintenance.
Yes, each piece of equipment has a temperature sensor and informs the App of the temperature of the room where it is installed.
Every home is different. It depends on many factors, such as the performance of the panels and installation inverter, the output of the necessary equipment, the delivery temperatures selected, the amount of house insulation, the windows, the home’s orientation, etc.
Remember that you can always finish charging your storage heaters using off-peak energy from the grid at the cheapest tariffs, if there have not been enough solar energy surpluses to complete the charge that day.
