Helping
to cut down on your Carbon Footprint and Save You Money!

In
October 2007, Ravenheat launched its ENERGYCATCHER©, a simple
unit which saves the customer money in the shape of reduced gas bills,
and helps the environment, too.
ENERGYCATCHER©
Is a revolutionary new system that will extract virtually all of
the heat from gas boiler fumes whenever the boiler is operating,
with a net result of a 5% extra saving on gas and a reduction in
bills. Fuel bills are reduced with all year round savings of a minimum
5% over and above that of the best SEDBUK Band A condensing boilers.
The
savings can be up to an amazing 90% in domestic hot water mode if
the storage tank is above 38°C.
WHAT
IS ENERGYCATCHER©
?
While modern domestic boilers are very efficient compared to those
of 20 years ago, one source of waste heat and pollution which has
not so far been addressed by boiler designers is the heat which
escapes to atmosphere through the boiler’s flue, or exhaust.
With the boiler running, these flue gases can exceed 60 degrees
Celsius, heat that is literally going up the chimney, and not into
heating water.
ENERGYCATCHER© changes all that. An ingenious small but patented
unit which requires no electrical connections and integrates on
top of the domestic boiler. The boiler’s flue gases, instead
of going straight out through the wall at 60+ degrees, are fed into
the ENERGYCATCHER©,
where they flow over a heat exchanger. The otherwise wasted heat
is transferred to the water in the heat exchanger, which moves under
convection into a storage tank. The tank can be of any size to suit
the need, and, as an example, after the central heating has run
for an hour a large tank will be fully heated, giving a good supply
of hot water. The exhaust gases, now considerably cooler, then vent
to the atmosphere.When
ENERGYCATCHER© is attached to a condensing boiler, the low
temperature of this exhaust means that the polluting gases condense
out into the condensate drain, rather than going to atmosphere.

ENERGYCATCHER©
saves on gas bills, saves precious gas supplies, and helps
the environment. UK, EC and world governments are all setting
tough targets for the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions
over the coming years in order to combat climate change.
The
Ravenheat ENERGYCATCHER reduces the gas being used by every
house where it is installed by 5% in one immediate step -
a major advance towards meeting those targets.
While
ENERGYCATCHER is a new and innovative product, Ravenheat has
already developed versions for a wide range of applications,
and the company is always keen to develop ENERGYCATCHER for
specific needs.
