Starting next month, Harvest is rolling out an exciting upgrade to its already impressive Harvest pod system. This will be known as Harvest Open, and now homeowners will gain even more flexibility and compatibility in choosing their heating solutions. Harvest pods now seamlessly integrate with most heat pumps using a 24-volt control interface, a much-requested configuration. Dubbed Harvest Open, this allows homeowners to select the reversible (DX) heat pump and air handler that perfectly fit their needs, while still allowing the Harvest system to maintain control over energy use, thermal storage, and delivery.

Before introducing a new product like Harvest Thermal, Small Planet likes to ensure its value for our customers' energy-efficient homes. To provide more than just our endorsement, we connected with Karen Harrington, an environmental activist and the first Harvest Thermal user in the Pacific Northwest.  Karen, a climate activist involved with Portland’s Climate Reality chapter and legislative efforts in Oregon, shared her insights about Harvest Thermal with Small Planet Supply’s Josh Palmer. Karen's has had first first-hand experience with Harvest Thermal, having installed it into two homes: one in Berkeley and one in Portland.  

Next month, Small Planet Supply will be hosting a SpacePak webinar with FlowTech’s Zach Liske.  SpacePak is a relatively new product at Small Planet Supply but one that is gaining popularity for customers, installers, and specifiers.  These low-refrigerant systems provide heating, cooling, and hot water in one package, making them an ideal choice for those who want an all-in-one mechanical system. Small Planet Supply currently sell two Spacepak Systems products: the Solstice Inverter Monobloc (SIM) and the Solstice SIS Inverter Split System.
