We’re proud to announce the completed installation and commissioning of Saskatchewan’s first wastewater heat recovery system at Orange Buffalo Lodge, a new 30-unit supportive housing development in Regina!
Led by YWCA Regina and constructed by Westridge Construction Ltd., this project combines much-needed supportive housing with innovative energy-efficient technology.
Sask Renewables supplied the PIRANHA T10 Wastewater Heat Recovery System, manufactured by SHARC Energy, and provided technical support throughout design, installation, and commissioning.
The PIRANHA system recovers heat from wastewater generated by showers, sinks, and laundry, repurposing it to produce domestic hot water. With a COP of approximately 3.4 (340% heating efficiency), the technology significantly reduces energy consumption and operating costs.
We’re excited to showcase this technology through future building tours and help expand wastewater heat recovery adoption across the Prairies!
A big thank you to YWCA Regina and everyone involved in bringing this important project to life!
