Commercial ApplicationsMarch 29, 2010 Commercial Applications U.S. EPA verified 75% savings of The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Greenhouse Gas Technology Center conducted a 15-month test of the EarthLinked® Commercial Water Heating system performance. The test was conducted in an assisted living facility in Sun City Center, Florida. The EPA report verifies 75% savings of electrical energy by the EarthLinked system in comparison with electric resistance water heating. By avoiding the generation of that amount of electricity, a typical EarthLinked unit avoids the emission of 7,000 pounds of carbon dioxide and 15 pounds of nitrous oxide per ton of capacity per year, which amounts to 42,000 pounds of CO2 and 90 pounds of NOX each year by a typical 6-ton capacity EarthLinked unit. That is equivalent to not burning 3,642 gallons of gasoline or 74 barrels of oil annually.
