At low hot water demand corresponding to the energy supply or less, the heat exchanger compensates directly in energy terms without affecting the quantity of hot water stored.

Hydronic radiant floor heating systems use a boiler to heat up hot water and a pump to circulate the hot water in plastic pipes installed in a concrete slab.
Heat recovery is also accomplished by passing the hot exhaust gases through a boiler to produce steam or hot water as well as hot oil for process heating.
C irculating pumps merely circulate hot water from the hot water heater storage tank through the Stainless Steel heat exchanger to deliver the heat to the building, and back to the storage tank to be reheated.

The hot water circulates back to the hot water cylinder in a separate piping system where we have the heat exchanger, either along side the hot water cylinder or in some cases inside the hot water cylinder.
Hot gas defrost works by reversing the coils and using the heat from the hot side of the coils to melt the ice to water.

The steam is converted to hot water or hot water is piped through the building within a radiator system that heats through the process of radiation and convection which is then piped throughout the building.
Running Hot Why is it that when you turn on your hot water tap, the pressure decreases dramatically as the water heats up?
Thermal energy heats the hot water for the home providing instant hot water throughout.

The hot water is then pumped through an under floor network of pipes that heats the floor, or the hot water is fed to a network of slim modern wall mounted radiators, say 4 or 5 scattered throughout the house.
Some systems heat water in a household hot water heater then pump that hot water into a heat exchanger that is submerged in the pond water.
The heat exchanger may also have been used as a source of hot water; just outside the hot room by the well head there is an area that was used for washing laundry.
