Don't be fooled by any claim from the tankless
electric water heater people.
To heat water the tankless water heater USE electricity,
and
it uses a LOT,
heating water is one of the most energetic expensive operations in nature, that
is why, down here in South Florida, after your air conditioning
unit (AC), your electric
water heater
is the one that consumes more electricity.
Well, here in South Florida you can't get away from using your AC, but
there is a way that you can get away from using your electric water
heater without installing an
expensive Solar water heater,
or an
inefficient tankless water heater, and that is installing a
HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM
.
The
HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM
use the heat generated by your AC unit to heat water, when your AC unit
is ON, it cools your house by extracting the heat inside of your house
and releasing it outside in the
condensing unit,
that heat is wasted all the time. That wasted Heat can be reused to heat your water, and the best of all,
IT IS FREE, let me say it again: FREE!
After you install a
Heat Recovery system,
you will be able to TURN OFF your electric water heater and still you
will have hot water, automatically you will have two gains:
1-
The part of your electric bill corresponding to your
electric water heater will be gone, that is a
saving of 30% of your electric bill, in a lot of cases hundreds, and even thousands of dollars will be saved yearly, just for
doing that.
2- As an added bonus,
your AC unit will be working more efficiently
because part of the heat, that it needs to disipate, will be heating
your water, therefore the condensing unit will have to work less to do
the same as before the heat recovery system installation.
This is one example from one of ours customers:
- The month previous to our installation the electric
bill was
$472.62 and 116 Kwh per day comsumption,
-
The next month, the electric water heater was disconencted all the time
and hot water was provided by the Heat Recovery Sytem: the electric
bill was
$337.23 and 82 Kwh per day comsumption.
That is a
29% saving in the electric bill
and
30% saving in electric comsumption!!!.
Just in the
first month this customer saved
$135!!!.
-
The second month after installation, the electric water heater was disconencted all the time, as before,
and hot water was provided by the Heat Recovery Sytem: the electric
bill was
$244.51 and 65 Kwh per day comsumption.
That is a
31% saving in electric comsumption!!!.
Just in the
first two months this customer saved more than
$300!!!.
