Waste Water Heat Recovery

Uses heat from waste water to save energy

Typical Taylor Wimpey home
Waste water heat recovery takes heat from the water that goes down the drain when you shower and uses that heat to pre-warm cold water from the mains via a heat exchanger (pipe) system.

The system can increase the temperature of mains cold water by up to 15 degrees, meaning less energy is needed to heat the water you use, which in turn lowers emissions and energy bills.

A waste water heat recovery system has no moving parts and there is no additional maintenance than you’d expect for a normal drainage system.

Each home is individual and will have specific technology and materials, please speak to our Sales Executive for further information.
