A minimum of 300 amp total service to the residence is necessary, as a Tempra 36 has a power draw of 150 amps via 3 separate 60 amp breakers with 6 gauge copper wiring."
36,000W of electricity...
Wow. 36kW in a house is seriously intense. That's like 25 microwaves at once or something. Better put that close to the electrical panel, I wouldn't want to run that wire very far at 6 gauge without getting out my code book.
