"It's fantastic because it's eco-friendly...We're not burning any gases," says Terrence Bridges.

Data centres that supply domestic heating aren’t new, but I’ve never seen a distributed model like this before.

    I think you could do both. Use the heat for both the house and water in the winter. The impact on the water won’t be as high, but it’ll likely still have a positive impact.

    Then in the summer just use the heat for water, maybe even running a recirculating system to keep warm water on tap all the time.

    There’s a ton of different options for how to implement it for new construction.
