If you’re looking to save on energy bills and increase the efficiency of your home heating, a waste heat hot water system could be the perfect solution. But how does its performance vary with different climates? It’s important to understand how these systems work in order to make the most out of them and make sure that your money is well spent.
In essence, waste heat hot water systems make use of energy that would otherwise go unused. This energy is generated in the form of heat from existing appliances, such as air conditioners, refrigerators, and boilers. This heat is then transferred to a hot water cylinder for storage and distribution throughout the home, providing an efficient and cost-effective solution for heating your home.
The performance of these systems can vary depending on the climate in which they are installed. In cold climates such as those found in Australia, they can be a great option for reducing energy bills as they can significantly reduce the amount of electricity or gas needed to provide warmth to your home.
In warmer climates, however, such as those found in parts of Europe or North America, waste heat hot water systems may not be able to provide enough warmth due to low temperatures outside. As such, if you’re considering one of these systems for a warmer climate it’s important to first assess whether or not it’ll be able to provide adequate warmth before making a decision.
To further enhance their performance no matter what climate you find yourself living in, you may want to consider installing a heat recovery system alongside your waste heat hot water system. Heat recovery systems take existing energy from appliances like air conditioners and boilers and transfer it into usable heat for further distribution throughout your home – meaning that you get even more bang for your buck when it comes to efficient heating solutions!
With regards to cost savings when using this type of system – depending on which appliances are being used – savings can range between 10-30% on average over traditional heating methods like electric radiators or gas boilers. Additionally, with the installation of a heat recovery system alongside your waste heat hot water system you could save even more – up to 40%.
