What is a Thermsaver Heat Recovery System™ (THRS)?
The THRS
is a patent pending system which captures gas-fired boiler flue gas, directs it through our Thermsaver chambers and exhausts it to the atmosphere. The Thermsaver chambers contain water piping. The water is heated significantly (in some applications, more than 140°F). The heated water passes to various processes within the facility. Examples are boiler feedwater hot wells, de-aereators, air handler heating/reheating loops, wash baths and water heaters. The system includes numerous electronic controls used to monitor and control dampers, air and water temperatures and flows, and BTUs. Commercial grade BTU meters track the energy saved. These controls are graphically displayed. The system can be monitored and controlled from any computer with internet access.
How does the THRS™ save energy?
By using otherwise wasted boiler flue gas to heat water, the demand for natural gas to make steam is reduced. Savings average 10-15%.
