Ecogetec - producer of water heating solutions

Ecogetec is a leader across Brazil in the production of water heating solutions, utilizing biomass in both medium and large systems. They have a factory in the state of Paraná and a sales office in São Paulo – BR, so they are well represented in the Brazilian market.

Ecogetec's main customers are resorts, water parks, hotels, clubs, and gyms.

For the Parque Recanto das Cachoeiras project, a total of (11) SWEP brazed plate heat exchangers were installed throughout the property. (4) B85Hx30 models were used to heat the water in the changing rooms for bathing and (7) B120TH models were used to heat three swimming pools on the premises.

Highly efficient heat exchanger

SWEP’s B85 model is a highly efficient heat exchanger with a higher thermal performance than any comparable product. It is the perfect choice for high-performance condensers and demanding heat transfer requirements. The large ports enable it to cope with high capacities.While the B120T model has been specially developed to operate in demanding heating and industrial applications, typically water-water applications, and oil coolers. The product has contributed to the rapid switch to brazed plate heat exchangers from traditional gasket plate heat exchangers and shell-and-tube solutions. Both models are very well suited for the efficient heating solution required for this park.

Ecogetec has partnered with SWEP in the past as their chosen heat transfer solution in heating applications, and this new project was no different! SWEP’s vast experience in residential heating covers both comfort and tap water heating. Typical applications for SWEP´s brazed plate heat exchangers are gas boilers, heat pumps, and solar heating, along with other decentralized heating technologies such as micro-combined heat and power systems and absorption heat pumps.
