Builder Testimonials

 

Drain Water Heat Recovery Systems are now standard in all the homes we build. The technology is simple, it’s easy to install, lasts forever with no maintenance and it saves energy. It’s always good business to exceed customers' expectations and Drain Water Heat Recovery systems help us do just that.

Buying a home is a long-term commitment and our customers appreciate that we are installing this simple, maintenance free technology that will save energy and lower their water heating costs for as long as they live in the home. Plus they like that we are helping the environment.

Today’s homebuyers are far more conscious of energy efficiency. When we explain how a Drain Water Heat Recovery system works, how it re-uses energy to pre-heat the water going into their hot water tank, and that it will save them up to 30 % on their water heating costs they get pretty excited about it.  

We like the technology - it’s easy to install, easy to maintain and the benefits are instant! As builders of ENERGY STAR® homes we also like the fact that every DWHR installation earns more credits than needed to meet all the kWh requirements.

People are beginning to understand that we have the biggest impact on the environment at home. We believe in building better, more efficient homes, which is why we install Drain Water Heat Recovery systems as part of an overall energy management system. With a DWHR system the homeowner is re-using energy to pre-heat water and in the process is saving energy and lowering their water heating costs without even having to think about.  It's an easy feature to sell because the copper pipe will last for years with no maintenance, installation is simple and it really saves energy.

Drain Water Heat Recovery systems fit perfectly with the Wastell philosophy of commitment to lasting value at a customer, community and global level. DWHR is such an innovative and simple way to save energy. There’s the immediate value to the homeowner in lower water heating costs and the long-term value to the environment of using less energy year after year. We install DWHR in our London Health Sciences Foundation Millionaire Lottery Home as yet another way to "pay it forward" and provide something of value for future generations.

We show our customers that Drain Water Heat Recovery is one of the ways they can make a responsible choice without compromise. We build custom homes that are better for the environment and better for the homeowner and Drain Water Heat Recovery systems help us achieve both goals at once. It’s a simple, maintenance free installation that essentially pre-heats the water going into the water tank. It uses less energy and saves the homeowner up to 30% on their water heating costs for every year they live in the home. DWHR is an integral part of the energy-efficient homes we build.
