237019000 | COMBINED WITH WATER HEATER | 12 |
20080197205 | TANK-TANKLESS WATER HEATER - A tank-tankless water heater includes primary and secondary heat exchangers, and a combustor for the production of flue gases. In operation, water is first heated as the water and flue gases flow through primary heat exchanger. The water flows into the tank where it is stored and again heated as the flue gases flow through the secondary heat exchanger. A pump moves the water from the secondary heat exchanger, through the primary heat exchanger, and back to the secondary heat exchanger for storage as needed to maintain the stored water at a desired temperature. Water is drawn from the secondary heat exchanger during initial demand to provide a ready source of hot water, and the hot water supply is maintained by the primary heat exchanger during sustained hot water draws. The primary heat exchanger may include a temperature or temperature differential control system. | 08-21-2008 |
20080203179 | HOT WATER AND HEATING SYSTEM OPERATING ON THE BASIS OF RENEWABLE ENERGY CARRIERS - The invention relates to a hot water and heating system, which operates on the basis of renewable energy carriers. | 08-28-2008 |
20080265046 | TANKLESS WATER HEATER HOT WATER RETURN SYSTEM - A tankless return hot water return system to facilitate whole-house or whole-building hot water return recirculation used in conjunction with tankless water heaters. The system is designed to compensate for tankless head losses and to protect the tankless heat exchanger. The system has a hot water return by-pass for heat exchanger protection. The invention utilizes the tankless water heater as the heating source for the hot water return and eliminates the need and use of tank-type water heaters for tankless hot water return recirculation. The system is self-contained with built-in temperature sensing and does not require any auxiliary controls, sensors, switches, timing mechanisms or remote activation. The system is energy efficient and water conservative. | 10-30-2008 |
20090008465 | COMBINED HEATING/WARM WATER SYSTEM FOR MOBILE APPLICATIONS - Combined heating/warm water system ( | 01-08-2009 |
20090026281 | ENERGY CONSERVATION SYSTEM - A hot water circuit ( | 01-29-2009 |
20090078783 | SECONDARY HEATING AND COOLING SYSTEM - A heating and cooling system operates in a supplemental heating mode or a supplemental cooling mode. In supplemental heating mode, the system carries water from a hot water supply of the water heater to a heat exchanger within an air passage in the furnace to heat the building. In the supplemental cooling mode, the system carries cool water from a cool water storage tank to the heat exchanger within the furnace to assist in cooling the building. | 03-26-2009 |
20100187320 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR RECOVERING AND REDISTRIBUTING HEAT - The disclosed system includes heat exchangers to recover and redistribute heat from and within a building heating and ventilation system and/or a steam system. Certain implementations of the system enable hybrid heating systems that merge existing combustion-based heating systems with systems that produce heat with electricity from renewable energy sources. Implementations of the disclosed system enable the conversation of energy and use of environmentally clean energy sources. In one illustrative implementation, heat is removed from an air conditioning system and redistributed into a steam generation system. | 07-29-2010 |
