Easily shift from gas to electric #LikeABosch with new hassle-free modular blower
Bosch Home Comfort, a leading source of high-quality heating, cooling and hot water systems, has unveiled a new electric replacement to gas furnaces in the Bosch 115V Modular Blower – which can be paired with a Bosch Cased Coil and Inverter Ducted Split (IDS) outdoor unit to provide a 115V electric heat pump solution.
While many heat pump-compatible air handlers require 240V breakers, the Bosch 115V Modular Blower can utilize the 115V/120V breaker sizes most frequently paired with furnaces – forgoing the need for electrical upgrades when switching from a gas-powered solution to an electric heat pump.
“Expanding access to energy-efficient home comfort solutions starts with making the transition to electrified systems simpler and more affordable,” said Amanda Ng, senior product manager at Bosch Home Comfort. “By leveraging the existing electrical infrastructure in furnace-compatible homes and removing the need for upgraded breakers, the Bosch 115V Modular Blower makes adoption easier than ever — offering a solution that’s as efficient to operate as it is effortless to install.”
The Bosch 115V Modular Blower is available in cabinet sizes A through D, able to assume any space previously occupied with an industry standard-sized furnace with ease. The unit can be installed in a variety of positions – upflow, downflow, vertical, horizontal or left-right – promising flexibility that further simplifies the installation process.
The Bosch 115V Modular Blower also boasts the following features:
- Highly efficient operation with a 5-speed ECM motor
- Compact design, with a height of 33” that’s ideal for tight spaces
- Easy to install thanks to compatibility with 115V and 120V electric breakers
- Optimal serviceability with a removeable bottom for side or bottom return applications
- Qualifies for up to $8,000 in federal IRA tax rebates & credits for installing an electric heat pump solution
