For a long time, a significant goal within commercial and industrial heat-producing operations has been reducing fuel cost and improving efficiency. Heat recovery is a proven performer, but very few manufacturers of hot water, steam, and hot air systems offer it as an option. Applied Heat Recovery has solved this issue. Today, they can provide heat recovery solutions for nearly every application.

About the Applied Heat Recovery Company
Every member of the Applied Heat Recovery team has spent many years working for boiler manufacturers, boiler repair companies and end users. This experience gives us a unique perspective that helps us integrate our equipment into the entire boiler system.
With improved design technology, effective quality control, and experience, Applied Heat Recovery can offer a standard warranty package that meets or exceeds industry standards. Our staff includes personnel ready to provide support from the initial request for proposal through startup.
Committed to Innovation, Precision, and
Reliability
With fuel costs rising quickly, it only makes sense for large energy users to minimize their fuel costs. For too long, boiler users had too few choices when it came to economizers, tubular air heaters and other auxiliary equipment required for maximum fuel efficiency.
Applied Heat Recovery has changed that, and today, we create designs that optimize both performance and price, tailored to your unique needs, whether it’s for producing hot water or heated air for any commercial or industrial application.
