N/A The fully-enclosed design of modern rotary screw compressors makes them especially suitable for heat recovery. This is true of both fluid-injected as well as oil-free compressors. The bigger your system and the more you run it, the more you'll save with heat recovery. Many of our mid and larger size (direct drive) models have an integral heat recovery option, but you can add heat recovery to your existing system with external heat exchangers. |

Up to 96 % of the compressor's exhaust heat can be used for space heating. To learn more about the savings that can be achieved using hot air heat recovery compared to fuel oil or natural gas. Use our heat recovery calculator to calculate the usable heating energy volume of a rotary screw compressor. |
