How It Works

How Heat From The Maxim Gets To Your Home

• The Maxim can be located up to 500 feet away from the home or building being heated.
• Heated water from the Maxim is pumped to the home or building through insulated, underground ThermoPEX piping - the most efficient way to move heat over distances.
• The Maxim is designed to work with any existing heating system. A heat exchanger or direct circulation conveys the heat into a forced-air furnace, radiant baseboard, or radiant floor heating system. This gives you normal thermostatic temperature control.
• The Maxim can provide heat for all your domestic hot water by adding a water-to-water heat exchanger. You can turn off your hot water heater and save $30 to $80 or more per month!

In addition to heating an entire home or building, the same Maxim unit can also heat other buildings such as a garage, workshop, shed, greenhouse or barn. It can even heat a swimming pool or hot tub.
