Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2573497A2] The invention relates to a thermal energy recovery unit in connection with a furnace of a building, comprising a flue duct (110) for conveying flue gas released from the furnace. The recovery unit comprises a liquid container (120) arranged around the flue duct (110) for collecting thermal energy in the flue gas conveyed in the flue duct into the liquid in the liquid container (120), and at least one liquid connection (101, 102) for connecting the liquid container (120) of the recovery unit to another recovery unit so as to enable transfer of the liquid in the liquid container between the recovery units.
