ABSTRACT:
An energy saving device that utilizes the rejected heat from an air conditioning unit for heating water or other suitable liquid in a conventional liquid heating storage tank. The primary heater control in the storage tank is turned off whenever the air conditioning compressor is operating by a pressure sensing switch in the compressor line that is wired in series with the tank heater control circuit. A water circulating pump is used to pass relatively cold tank water through a heat exchanger which is connected to the compressor outlet conduit of the air conditioner. The pump is controlled by a thermostatic switch which measures heat exchanger outlet water temperature. The device not only utilizes otherwise rejected heat energy from an air conditioning unit for heating water in a conventional hot water tank but also increases the efficiency and endurance of the air conditioning system by removing super heat from the compressor gases.
