EcoDrain Captures Wasted Energy

By Dan Gould on March 30, 2009

Ecofriend points us to an interesting invention that recaptures wasted heat energy from a shower’s waste water. The EcoDrain will grab heated water before it goes down the drain and uses it’s heat to help wram incoming shower water. The Ecodrain’s creators believe that it could potentially save millions of dollars a year in energy costs.
