Water efficiency is a critical component of enviromental and energy saving measures and is often overlooked. Substantial energy, carbon and water can be saved by installing various water saving devices around buildings and factories. Energy is saved as less water is used which results in less water having to be heated.
Benefits of using water more efficiently
- Reduction in water bill
- Reduction in electrical bill
- Save the environment by using less water
- Reduce your carbon footprint by using less water and therefore less electricity
How can I become more water efficient?
- Water efficiency can be achieved in various ways, including:
- Adapting your water usage habits to be more efficient
- Installing flow regulating devices to manage water usage
- Installing devices to assist in reducing water consumption
Easy Energy strives to assist its customers in becoming more water efficient without changing the original experience.

Heat recovery is the process of extracting heat from a medium such as air or water that would typically have been wasted and reuse the heat somewhere else.
An example would be to recover the heat from a shower’s drain water and heat the geyser’s incoming water supply with the recovered heat.
Benefits
- Reduce cost of heating by using your existing energy more efficiently
- Reduce the size of heating equipment by recycling heat
- Reduce your total carbon footprint
Typical uses
Heat recovery can be used by virtually anybody who has heat that is being wasted, examples include:
- Domestic showers
- Building’s grey water
- Factory waste water
- Building’s hot air
Energy sources can be recovered from
Easy Energy currently has products which can recovery heat from the following mediums:
- Water or any liquids
- Air or any gases

Easy Energy’s robust and reliable Power-Pipe is a heat exchanger that allows you to extract the heat that would typically be washed down your drain along with your drain water and recylce it by heating your shower’s cold water supply. Less hot water from the geyser is required if warmer cold water is being used, resulting in substantial savings.

Benefits
- Save you up to 40% of your water heating costs.
- Reduce your carbon emissions by up to 1 tonne per annum
- Easy to install
- No moving parts
- Clogging resistant
- Cross-contamination cannot occur between drain and fresh water
- Maintenance FREE
- Expected lifespan of 50 years
- Retrofit to any water system
How it works
The Power-Pipe consists of copper tubes wrapped around a copper drain pipe. The waste water from your shower flows down the copper drain pipe, clinging to the inner surface as a very thin film. At the same time, cold fresh water travels up through the wrapped copper tubes. The heat in the waste water travels safely and efficiently through the copper and into the cold fresh water. How could energy conservation be any simpler?
Power-Pipe Installation Illustration
Installation
Installing a Power-Pipe is straightforward. The Power-Pipe replaces a vertical section of your existing drain stack (whether it is plastic, cast iron, or copper) and is connected to your fresh water system. For the best possible results, the heated fresh water leaving the Power-Pipe should be routed to your shower’s cold water tap. Now when you have a shower, your hot water can contain safely recycled energy and your geyser has to heat less water.
