Discover where Recoup’s heat recovery technology creates the most impact. From single homes to large-scale residential and hospitality projects.
Bathrooms are typically located on the first floor. In new builds, plumbing can be designed for a vertical WWHR system. In renovation projects, existing pipework may be adapted, or our horizontal solutions provide an ideal alternative.
Depending on local regulations and building ownership, either a vertical or horizontal WWHR system can be installed. Because vertical systems are typically installed outside the building's thermal envelope, some countries only permit them in single-owner buildings. Multi-owner developments, such as apartment blocks, generally require a horizontal solution, although exceptions may apply, for example in student accommodation.
High-use shower facilities offer exceptional potential for waste water heat recovery. Our high-capacity WWHR systems recover heat from wastewater from multiple showers and return it to the hot water system, reducing energy consumption, operating costs and carbon emissions. Ideal for sports clubs, gyms, swimming pools, spas and other leisure facilities with high hot water demand.
Hotels are an ideal application for vertical shower waste water heat recovery. With stacked bathrooms and constant hot water demand, Recoup WWHR systems deliver substantial year-round energy savings. By recovering heat from shower wastewater, they reduce energy consumption and hot water generation capacity by up to 40%, minimising peak demand while lowering operating costs, carbon emissions and payback time.
Holiday parks, lodge resorts and bungalow-style accommodations offer excellent potential for waste water heat recovery. Horizontal WWHR systems are ideally suited to these low-rise properties, reducing hot water energy demand, lowering operating costs and improving sustainability.
Offices, commercial buildings and industrial sites with staff showers can benefit from waste water heat recovery. WWHR systems reduce hot water energy demand, lower operating costs and support more sustainable, energy-efficient buildings.
Schools and universities with sports facilities are ideal for collective waste water heat recovery. By recovering heat from multiple showers, WWHR systems reduce hot water energy demand, lower operating costs and support more sustainable, energy-efficient buildings.
Hospitals, clinics and other healthcare facilities are well suited for vertical waste water heat recovery. By recovering heat close to the point of use, WWHR systems reduce hot water energy demand, lower system loads and improve overall building efficiency.
Government buildings and public-service facilities offer valuable opportunities for waste water heat recovery. Flexible WWHR solutions, including collective, vertical and horizontal systems, reduce hot water energy demand, lower operating costs and improve overall building performance.
With increasing EPC, EPBD and energy performance requirements, government and public-service buildings are looking for ways to reduce energy losses. WWHR captures heat from shower wastewater, helping to lower hot water demand, improve building performance and support regulatory compliance.
Whether it’s a compact studio apartment or a large-scale residential development, Recoup systems fit perfectly into every type of building. Designed for easy integration, they deliver high energy efficiency, low maintenance, and lasting reliability.
