Heat recovery

Refrigerant desuperheater waste-heat-recovery systems can recycle rejected heat from a refrigeration system and use it to heat water or other fluids, while lowering refrigerant temperature and pressure, and so reducing energy input.

Pre-heating water reduces the energy required for water heating while increasing the efficiency of the refrigeration system. Desuperheaters can be applied to any refrigeration system with reciprocating, rotary, scroll or screw-type compressors.

These desuperheaters are best installed on systems that have high annual cooling runtimes and at sites that have a constant heating requirement. Greater amounts of waste heat are available from older, less efficient equipment.^[1]
