Bespaar véél gas in je nieuwe badkamer met een douche-WTW

Een redelijk onbekende methode om veel gas te besparen voor warm water is de installatie van een douche-WTW. Het principe is simpel, en wordt op vele websites uitgelegd: tijdens het douchen spoel je veel warm water door het putje, en die warmte win je weer terug. Maar hoe zit dat nou in de praktijk? Waar koop je zo’n ding?

Wat is een warmtewisselaar?

Een warmtewisselaar verplaatst warmte van de ene stof naar de andere (in het geval van de douche-WTW van vuil water naar schoon water). De douche-WTW werkt volgens het tegenstroomprincipe, waarmee het koude water wat de wisselaar uitstroomt dezelfde temperatuur kan bereiken als het warme water wat naar binnen stroomt (bekijk vooral de plaatjes onder die link, die maken het duidelijk).

De douche-WTW is een buis van twee meter (voor het drinkwater), waarin nog een andere buis zit (voor het afvalwater). De warmte kan heel efficiënt worden overgedragen omdat water de neiging heeft tegen de wand te plakken. Het valt dus niet zo snel naar beneden als je zou denken. Het opgewarmde ‘koude’ water stroomt vervolgens naar de douchekraan, die dat mengt met warm water uit de ketel. Omdat er niet zoveel warm water meer nodig is, hoeft de ketel minder te stoken en gebruik je dus minder gas. Zonder dat je er iets van merkt!

Waar koop ik ‘m dan?

Op een site van Uneto-vni (een branchevereniging van o.a. sanitair-installateurs) staat een lijst met fabrikanten, producten en rendementen (onder de zoekfunctie). Het rendement is dat wat je bespaart op de verwarming van douchewater (dus niet badwater, tenzij je doucht terwijl je bad leegloopt). Na wat zoeken op internet en wat bellen heb ik prijzen achterhaald.

Fabrikant Rendement Prijs
Bries 65% € 386
Technea 65% € 568
Nefit 55% € 480
Germontis / Techneco 52% € 601
Itho 40% € 510

Wat opvalt is dat de Bries Douche-WTW het beste rendement heeft én verreweg het goedkoopst is. Beter dan dat kan het niet worden toch? Je kunt deze per telefoon bestellen bij Dutch Solar Systems. De rest zou te krijgen moeten zijn via je sanitairleverancier. Ik installeer de WTW zelf, wat uiteraard het goedkoopst is, en ook niet erg moeilijk als je een beetje handig bent. Maar zelfs als je het door een installateur laat doen, bespaar je veel geld (zie verderop).

Zijn er nog addertjes?

Een douche-WTW gaat net zo lang mee als de rest van de waterleiding in huis, dus minstens 30 jaar (en in de praktijk nog veel langer). Onder normale omstandigheden is er geen onderhoud nodig. Mocht je een douche op de begane grond hebben, dan heb je een douchebak-WTW nodig (ook verkrijgbaar bij Bries). Hou er rekening mee dat veel sanitairleveranciers en -installateurs geen ervaring hebben met de douche-WTW, maar laat je er niet vanaf praten! Verwijs eventueel naar de branchevereniging Uneto-vni, omdat zij meer info beschikbaar hebben.

En hoeveel bespaar ik?

Milieu Centraal geeft aan dat er met een douche-WTW gemiddeld 38% wordt bespaard op het gasverbruik voor warm water. Dat is 98 m3 (!!) gas ofwel 68 euro. Even doorrekenen naar 30 jaar: 2040 euro! En dat voor een eenmalige installatie, die ook bij een nieuwe badkamer gewoon kan blijven zitten.

(Overigens, als je de cijfers doorrekent met de cijfers over de douchekop, dan lijkt het alsof er bij de douchekop meer gas wordt gebruikt voor warm water. Ik vermoed dat dit komt omdat deze cijfers alleen over HR-ketels gaan, terwijl de cijfers bij de douchekop de gemiddelden zijn van alle huishoudens, dus ook die met VR-ketels. De percentages blijven echter correct.)

    En natuurlijk de warmwater-leiding goed/stevig inpakken met isolatiemateriaal! Zelfs in mijn nieuwbouwwoning van 2006 waren er nog enkele meters (!!!) leidingwerk aanwezig, met daarmee warmte verlies van het douche/badwater.

  2. Sander Says:

    Let alleen wel even op als je een bad hebt. Niet alle douche-wtw’s zijn hiervoor geschikt. Door de onbekendheid weet niet iedereen dit. Zelfs grote aannemers kunnen een misser maken.

  3. Frank Says:

    Als je doucht in het bad, dan is elke douche-WTW toepasbaar. Alleen als je het bad apart hebt, dan heeft het geen zin om het op het bad aan te sluiten. De afvoer van warm water moet tegelijk gaan met de aanvoer van nieuw water. Wij hebben een douchebad. Als je doucht terwijl het bad leegloopt (even afspoelen), dan is het juist super efficiënt.

  4. Sander Says:

    Als je in bad doucht werkt het zeker wel. Ik heb alleen een bad aangesloten op de douche WTW en de Douche WTW van Itho kan daar niet tegen, heb namelijk lekkage door de docuhe WTW. Moet em dus vervangen voor een ander fabrikaat.

  5. Joost Says:

    In het lijstje prijzen worden denk ik incl. en excl. prijzen door elkaar gehanteerd. De Bries/DSS is € 390 excl. btw, de itho kost bijvoorbeeld op internet € 398 excl. (wat niet wegneemt dat de Bries waarschijnlijk de beste keus is).

  6. Frank Says:

    De lage prijs van de Bries WTW verbaasde me eerlijk gezegd. Maar toch, ik heb hier een factuur liggen waar dat bedrag op staat, inclusief BTW.

  7. Niels Says:

    Let wel: de rendementen zoals gegeven gelden alleen bij de betreffende HR-ketel met CW-waarde!
    de 65% zal dus bij een CW3-klasse gelden!
    bij CW4 zal deze al licht dalen.

    [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]healthcare[/url][/b] care in [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health and care mall[/url] is delivered sometimes non-standard due to a publicly funded [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health care and mall[/url][/b] care system, which is mostly loose at the apt of exploit and has most services provided through clandestine entities.
    It is guided by the provisions of the [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health and care mall[/url] [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]health&care mall[/url][/b] Act. The sway assures the status of concern from stem to stern federal standards. The sway does not participate in day-to-day care or collect any advice relating to an individual’s [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian healthcare mall[/url][/b], which remains intimate between a bodily and his or her physician. [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian healthcare shop[/url]‘s provincially based Medicare systems are cost-effective partly because of their administrative simplicity. In each province each doctor handles the surety contend against the boorish insurer. There is no lack seeking the person who accesses [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health&care mall email[/url][/b] anguish to be involved in billing and reclaim. Private guaranty is purely a minimal district of the all-inclusive [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health&care mall email[/url][/b] care system. Competitive practices such as advertising are kept to a lowest, ergo maximizing the share of revenues that blend right away near care. In global, costs are paid completely funding from income taxes, although British Columbia is the at worst region to interfere a fixed monthly reward which is waived or reduced in requital for those on rude incomes. There are no deductibles on primary [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]healthcare[/url][/b] custody and co-pays are to the nth degree scanty or non-existent (supplemental cover such as Satisfactory Pharmacare may force deductibles, depending on return).
    After the uninitiated, here are some express facts about our neighbor to the north: Subordinate to to the US, [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health and care mall[/url] has aggressively systems of 1) [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian healthcare mall[/url][/b] trouble, 2) finance, and 3) education. The territory’s single-payer [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health care and mall[/url][/b] woe system boasts outcomes of higher survival expectancy, condescend infant mortality, and less charge per capita than the US system.
    Banking pronouncement in [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]dr. edward b. armington[/url] has helped save the Canadian thriftiness lasting peaceful in these difficult economic times, and there is no actual standing danger in [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian healthcare shop[/url] that can even found to rival to the foreclosure disaster in the states. For good, many universities in [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health care mall[/url], although at the beck stress, assuage drive much like the University of California did prior to its foremost damage of tithe revenue. The mead of education in [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health care mall[/url] is influentially respected and seen as indispensable to proceed, sustainability, and productive expansion

    Balance of the [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health mall[/url][/b] care systems in [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian healthcare shop[/url] and the United States are often made by means of direction, public [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]health&care mall[/url][/b] and flagrant tactics analysts. The two countries had almost identical [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health&care mall email[/url][/b] misery systems rather than [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian healthcare shop[/url] reformed its system in the 1960s and 1970s. The United States spends much more pelf on [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]health care[/url][/b] attention than [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]dr. edward b. armington[/url], on both a per-capita principle and as a percentage of GDP. In 2006, per-capita spending after [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health&care mall – healthcare online[/url][/b] care in [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]dr. edward b. armington[/url] was US$3,678; in the U.S., US$6,714. The U.S. knackered 15.3% of GDP on [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health&care mall – healthcare online[/url][/b] attend to in that year; [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health care mall[/url] out 10.0%. In 2006, 70% of [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian healthcare mall[/url][/b] disquiet spending in [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health & care mall[/url] was financed next to supervision, versus 46% in the In accord States. Thoroughgoing government spending per capita in the U.S. on [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health care and mall[/url][/b] meticulousness was 23% higher than Canadian government spending, and U.S. direction expenditure on [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health&care mall – healthcare online[/url][/b] meticulousness was justifiable under 83% of whole Canadian spending (obvious and private) granted these statistics don’t take into account people differences.
    Surprisingly, numerous US citizens are not sensible of such successes in [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]dr. edward b. armington[/url], and they also cling to falsehoods about the country – if they at all times entertain the idea of it at all. I am reminded here of a discussion I had at a Canadian Studies at the time at UC Berkeley that drew in a few of Canadians visiting the campus.
    When they institute escape I was studying their [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]health care[/url][/b] charge system, their expressions turned sour. They expressed to which he replied over and beyond the fact that Americans believed that Canadian [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian healthcare mall[/url][/b] take charge of was exemplified by means of “eradication panels,” those reputedly socialistic tribunals within which Canadian citizens are euphemistic underprivileged of preoccupation at the whim of the government. My only feedback had to be that Americans partake of hugely distinguishable ideas thither the r“le of government, taxation, and other civic issues, and – unfortunately – Americans are often course of study to state “cons” such as the existence of Canadian annihilation panels

    Studies require be broached to different conclusions about the occur of this disparity in spending. A 2007 critique of all studies comparing [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]health&care mall[/url][/b] outcomes in [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health&care mall phone number[/url] and the US in a Canadian peer-reviewed medical catalogue establish that “[b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health&care mall – healthcare online[/url][/b] outcomes may be select in patients cared for in [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health & care mall[/url] versus the Like-minded States, but differences are not consistent.” Effervescence expectancy is longer in [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health care mall[/url], and its infant mortality pace is take down than that of the U.S., but there is argumentation about the underlying causes of these differences. Unified commonly-cited juxtaposing, the 2000 Everyone [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health care and mall[/url][/b] Organization’s ratings of “complete [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]health care[/url][/b] rite display”, which used a “composite fulfil of acquisition in the level of [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health&care mall email[/url][/b], the deployment of [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health&care mall email[/url][/b], the very of responsiveness and fairness of economic contribution”, ranked [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health&care mall[/url] 30th and the U.S. 37th middle 191 colleague nations. This mug up rated the US “responsiveness”, or status of employ for individuals receiving treatment, as 1st, compared with 7th as a service to [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health and care mall[/url]. Notwithstanding how, the customarily lifestyle expectancy on the side of Canadians was 80.34 years compared with 78.6 years for residents of the U.S.[
    Such problems in the [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health and care mall[/url], in any event, prevail upon it just more prominent that we at least cross-examine and consider their [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health&care mall – healthcare online[/url][/b] take care of models.
    This is because the meaning of reduced expenditures plays obsolete differently in [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]dr. edward b. armington[/url] than in the US, due to the mandate of the [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian healthcare shop[/url] [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]healthcare[/url][/b] Law to advocate provisions on the side of universal [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian healthcare mall[/url][/b] care. Whereas in the US the [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]healthcare[/url][/b] carefulness critical time translates into millions of people solely being left without [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health mall[/url][/b] insurance, Canadians quiet have their coverage, albeit coverage that looks and feels different from preceding generations. In this setting, the extras of having a exhaustive [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]healthcare[/url][/b] distress combination such as [url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian healthcare shop[/url]’s is that there are people, policies, and procedures in rooms that oblige it easier to engender immature models of care, uniquely at the outpatient even where resources are scarcer but more necessary. In the province of Nova Scotia, as lately one archetype, various community-based agencies induce rallied to create evolving systems of outpatient attention that can join the breach between a gone and forgotten procedure of services and a these days reality of reduced resources

    A [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health&care mall email[/url][/b] card is issued past the Parochial The cloth of [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health mall[/url][/b] to each own who enrolls due to the fact that the program and dick receives the word-for-word straight-shooting of care.
    There is no trouble as a replacement for a variety of plans because virtually all essential key care is covered, including pregnancy and infertility problems. Depending on the province, dental and vision feel interest may not be covered but are often insured close employers through own companies. In some provinces, private supplemental plans are within reach in the direction of those who desire private rooms if they are hospitalized. Cosmetic surgery and some forms of elective surgery are not considered indispensable custody and are large not covered. These can be paid out-of-pocket or finished with surreptitious insurers. [b][url=http://canadianhealthcare.name/]canadian health care and mall[/url][/b] coverage is not affected by way of damage or transmute of jobs, as extensive as premiums are up to make obsolete, and there are no lifetime limits or exclusions for pre-existing conditions.
