- the connector 230 may be fixed to the heat exchange portion 240.
- the lid 220 may be opened, e.g. by rotating around a fixation axis at one end, or removed and the connector 230 fixed to the heat exchanger portion 240 rotated from the first rest position to the second position, as illustrated in Fig. 4. This allows for easy access to the water trap and various parts of the heat exchanger for cleaning, inspection and/or maintenance.
- the connecter and the heat exchanger portion may be connected in several additional points.

- a sealing (washer) or welding may also be used to connect the connector pieces (233, 234) to the heat exchanger portion.
- the distribution portion 241 distributes the wastewater over the heat exchanger portion and channels through which flows the fresh water to be heated.
- the distributer portion may for example be made of pressed sheet of stainless steel, (chrome) plated copper, aluminum or any other suitable material with good thermal conductivity, e.g. formed by joining upper and lower portions such that a channel system 242 for the cold-water shaped as a continuous spiral loop, with a height difference between the beginning and end of the spiral, is formed.
- the height difference means that the connection 244 is situated substantially higher than the connection 243 with respect to the bottom base of the heat exchanger portion.
- the spiral loops are formed as stairs in cross-section.
- the inclination of the spiral loop results in that the warm wastewater flowing outside the channels 242 alongside the inclined loop wash over the loops from the outer peripheries of the heat exchanger portion towards its midpoint, substantially in a counter-current direction to the cold-water, which is pushed from the midpoint towards the outlet 233 in the channels.
- the cold-water in the channels flow due to the water pressure of the cold water.
- the floor drain may have a lower part 180 spaced from the distributer portion 241 with thermal transfer characteristics, which allows for additional wastewater to flow under the conductor portion, providing for further heat exchange.
- the heat exchanger portion’s 240 distributer portion may comprise pipes 248/248’, slightly tilted in one direction (sloping downwards in the direction of arrow a) so that the wastewater flows in one direction, both above and below the pipes.
- the cold-water fed through the piece 243 flows in an opposite direction.
- the heat exchanger can be made of compressed copper pipes or extruded aluminum, or any other suitable material with good thermal conductivity.
- One object of the invention is to provide a heat exchanger that serves for heat recovery and is subjected to low pressure load on the fed water side. Consequently, the cold-water to be heated with recovered heat from the wastewater is connected directly from the household or domestic water with same pressure. Household/domestic water is water used for indoor and outdoor household purposes. For this reason, the mixer 300 is designed to be able to feed the water to the heat exchanger 200 and mix the returned water with elevated temperature and mix it with the hot water.
- Fig. 9 is an alternative embodiment of the heat exchanger 200.
- the heat exchanger portion 240 comprises an additional back support portion 247 with hinges 249.
- the rotation axis of the hinges 249 coincides with the rotation axis 230 of the connector 230.
- the distributer 241 may be provided with vias 2401 connecting the upper surface of the distributer to the backside of it through channels 242 to allow wastewater to flow through to backside of the distributer, i.e., the space between lower part 180 and the distributer.
- the vias 2401 are arranged at the curves (in opposite surface) but may be arranged in a suitable position along the spiral stairs.
- the heat exchanger portion 240 may be hinged having a rotational axis same as the connector 230.
- Fig. 10 illustrates schematically an embodiment of a shower mixer 300 and its interior.
- the shower mixer comprises a housing 310, a wall fitting portion 311, a temperature control (or tap) 320, a water flow on/off/di verter control (or tap) 330, a hot-water valve 350, a cold-water valve 360, a thermostat 340, and connections to: cold-water 140, warm water 150, water feed pipe to heat exchanger 160, return water from the heat exchanger 170 and to shower head 180.
- the water flow control 330 is turned on, which opens the valve 360 and depending on the water temperature, control valve’s position, an amount of cold-water (represented by dotted arrow 312) is fed to the heat exchanger and warm water (represented by dot dashed line 313) is fed to the thermostat 340.
- a hot-water source such as a boiler
- the heat exchanger recovers and returns heated water (represented by double dot dashed line 314) to the thermostat, the hot-water 313 and heated water 314 are mixed and temperature of the water 315 to the shower is increase.
- the user decreases the amount of the hot-water from the hot-water source by increasing the temperature by using the temperature control 320 until a desired temperature is obtained.
- the circulation in the entire system is thus affected and operates due to the pressure of the cold water.
- the connector 230 is shown substantially centrally positioned in several embodiments, it may be arranged in any position along the long side or short side of the heat exchanger allowing. A combination of the different embodiments and combination of features from different embodiments is also possible.
- the floor drain may be designed so that it can be used with or without the heat exchanger and its water connections. This makes it possible to choose to or later remove the heat exchanger without affecting the built-in floor drain.
- the heat exchanger's connecting pipes can be mounted hidden or visible.
- the floor drain may be designed for both concealed and visible pipe connections. In the case of a visible pipe connection up to the shower mixer, the lid to the floor drain may have a customized design.
