Abstract: The present invention relates to a heat recovery system, of a part of the energy spent in the preparation of waste water, e.g. water from baths or kitchens, energy that is usually lost when the water is drained into the sewer. This energy can be recovered and reused to heat water that is readily used, for example in the shower, or can be stored in a water heater. This system is designed in such a way that, together with any tub or shower base, constitutes a heat recovery shower base or a heat recovery bath, for example. The energy recovery system is composed, preferably, by a coil generally made of copper inside a PVC pipe that has at one end a throttle plate also made of PVC, a filter for the protection of the system against impurities, turbulence fins, and an external casing. The system has a compact structure which benefits its rapid adaptation.
