Waste Heat Recovery

When air conditioners run, they pull heat out of your home and reject it to the outside atmosphere. A waste heat recovery system takes advantage of this heat rejection by using it to raise the temperature of water in a water heater. Thus, the water heater does not have to heat the water as much and therefore saves energy. This only works during the warmer months when the air conditioner is in use.
