Zypho Waste Water Heat Recovery

The Zypho Waste Water Heat Recovery system is an innovative device designed to harness the thermal energy from shower wastewater. By capturing the heat from the outgoing wastewater, this system efficiently preheats incoming cold water, reducing the energy required to reach the desired shower temperature.

The Zypho system integrates a heat recovery unit that effectively transfers the recovered heat, ensuring a eco-friendly solution for heating water. By utilising this technology, the Zypho Waste Water Heat Recovery system helps conserve energy, lower hot water consumption, and promote overall energy efficiency in residential and commercial settings. A Zypho Waste Water Heat Recovery can be expected to increase the efficiency of ones shower by 30-60 percent.

Layout Possibilities

Zypho transfers heat from outgoing waste water to incoming cold water from the main water supply. The heated cold water can be connected in one of three ways.

Option A – The Most Efficient

Water is transferred to the tap and the boiler.

Option B

Water is transferred to the tap only.

Option C

Water is transferred to the boiler only
