- Hospitals - Schools & Colleges - Athletic Club/YMCAs - Swimming Pools - Hotels & Motels - Apartments & Condos - Food & Beverage - Laundries - Nursing Homes In a conventional water heater, fuel burning at temperatures greater than 2500°F produces only low-grade energy - 150°F to 200°F hot water. These water heaters don't make full use of the high-grade energy in the fuel; and because they are thermodynamically wasteful, they waste your money too! In the TECOGEN module, high-temperature combustion produces both hot water and valuable electric power. Thermal performance is comparable to conventional water heaters, but in addition, 26% of the fuel's energy is converted into high-grade electrical energy. The combined electrical and heating efficiency is 83%. Utilization of the fuel's energy potential, both high-grade and low-grade, is maximized. |
