Heat your hot water and reduce your CO2 emissions with renewable energy.
Ecovery Innovations have been at the heart of Kitchen Energy Recovery technology since 2012. Our advanced Kitchen Energy Recovery Systems (KERS) maximises the exploitation of discarded waste energy from your cooking appliances by converting it into free heating and food-safe hot water. KERS is a truly unique system which is a true retro-fit, with no modifications required to the existing cookline, and offers a fast return on investment. Potential CO2 emissions are reduced by up to eight tonnes per year.
Every day chefs use cooking equipment that generates an incredible amount of heat, and every day almost 100% of that heat is wasted.
Imagine if you could capture the waste heat and use it to power your business. With KERS you can.
The KERS Collector has been specially designed to absorb high temperature waste heat. Situated directly above the appliance flue it captures heat at anything up to 500°C. The stainless steel exterior, fully welded cover with internal radius baffles, ensures an even distribution of heat and restricts any residual grease build up within the collector. Suitable for gas fryers, salamander grills, solid tops, pasta cookers and convection ovens. Over two fryers or two salamanders, our Collector is capable of raising up to 800-1000 litres of water to 50°C per day.
The Collector absorbs the heat, which is primarily diverted to the Bufferstore where it raises the incoming mains temperature up to 50°C.
The KERS Control Panel can be used to connect the system to any existing water heating boiler or thermal storage with safe compliance. It then safely controls the flow and distribution of the recovered energy ensuring its most advantageous use.
The system can be configured to automatically divert the hot water usage as desired, once the primary requirement is satisfied.
Currently KERS is being used to heat water for kitchens, bars and toilets, preheat kitchen make-up air, underfloor and overdoor heating, wet heating systems, and reduce the running cost of dishwashers.
