Chimney Heat Exchanger Water

My fireplace saves me money four ways.

Chimney heat exchanger water.

I wanted to build this heat exchanger to reclaim some of the heat that is lost up the chimney of my wood stove. The size 39 airculator fireplace heat exchanger draws cool room air into the 88 cfm fan box sends it through the heat chamber and circulates warm air back into the room heating up to 300 to 425. The majority of water warming attachments employ heat exchangers that are fitted inside the firebox or the chimney of the appliance. 1 it keeps my living room and kitchen warm 2 it provides hot water baseboard heat for my tv shop and 3 it preheats water for my electric water.

The water vapor moves into the duct through a unidirectional valve which is used to avoid the backflow of water vapor in the chimney. This warms your room faster and cuts back on the amount of wood needed. Then the water vapor enters into the heat exchanger which condenses the water vapor into the water by the flow of cold water in the counter flow direction in the heat exchanger and comes out and the water is then.

I have seen heat exchanger units available in stores for around. Increased efficiency and lower fuel costs.
