Is anyone aware of any commercially available heating system that uses the principles of Stirling engine for waste heat recovery for the home?

Check out this cool site:
stirling engines

It seems like there are many opportunities to use these engines around a home.

Jeff,

You're a real Tech-Guy!

I am currently satisfied with wall-insulation and don't seem to mind the little bit energy beinng 'wastes'!

C'mon.........
you are utilising more than 80% Energy already!
But it's good to aim for more!

Sorry,
am not of much help to you here.
Take Care!
