Heat
pump technology is useful in many applications, from small-scale
residential climate control to large industrial heat recovery systems.
Our partner design team this year has been working on a heat recovery
system in Barrows Hall/ Engineering Science and Research Building.

Some unique applications include municipal water heat recovery
such as the system in Old Town, ME, or fish farm heating like the
Maine Halibut Farms in Franklin, ME. Any industrial process that
creates excess heat can benefit from a heat pump. Heat pumps capture
and transport heat that can be used for drying and dehumidification
purposes, distillation and evaporation, generation of hot water
and steam, and for space heating.
