Heat recovery is the process where heat that is being produced by air or water and is usually wasted is trapped and diverted to provide heat elsewhere. At Easy Energy our heat recovery products come in the form of “power-pipe” that is a heat exchanger and helps to move heat from one location to another. This can help you save up to 40% on your monthly water heating costs.

Allowing us to install a Power Pipe at your home will not only save you on your electricity bill, but will also assist you in doing your bit for the environment as water is saved and your carbon emissions will be reduced by up to 1 tonne per year!

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.

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?

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.
