Innovative Alliance: revincus and Rain-O-Tec join forces for the future 

20.11.2023

We are excited to announce a groundbreaking partnership with the Austrian wastewater pioneer Rain-O-Tec. As a young, motivated, and innovative startup, we see this collaboration as a unique opportunity to deepen our expertise in environmental technology and expand our product range.


References: Rain-O-Tec has been operating wastewater heat exchangers in swimming pools and industries with high flow rates for over 10 years. These experiences and proven references are also represented by revincus through this cooperation.

Products: Our product range is growing to include a wastewater heat exchanger for high flow rates. Our goal is to supply the German market through this technology exchange and implement our digitized process monitoring in this proven technology.

We look forward to working with Rain-O-Tec and setting new standards together.

144 residential units in Stadtroda will benefit from energy from hot water in the future

07.07.2023
Great progress in our project in Stadtroda! A milestone was recently reached in the extensive energy-efficient refurbishment of the WBS 70 residential blocks: Our partner, Heizungsbau Kössel, successfully installed the revincus sewage heat exchangers and sewage diverters. By utilizing our innovative technology for wastewater heat recovery, 144 residential units now benefit from energy from hot water. This measure is part of extensive energy-efficient refurbishment and marks an important step towards sustainable urban development.

More details on this exciting project coming soon!

ABW-SSW under installation near Dresden

Combination of air source heat pump and revincus technology in new building project

03.11.2022

Near Dresden, an exciting new construction project is setting new standards in sustainable heat supply. Our innovative stratified storage wastewater heat exchanger was recently successfully installed there. Thanks to its special technology, this heat exchanger enables the efficient transfer of heat in different layers and temperature zones. Particularly noteworthy about this project is the combination of our wastewater heat recovery system with an air source heat pump. Both heat sources flow together in a hygienic storage tank, providing an efficient and environmentally friendly heat supply. We are pleased to be part of this innovative solution and are excited to see the results of this synergy!
