The first commercial cold fusion technology is emerging as a hot-water boiler to make useful steam and hot water.
An old Architectural Record from December 1925, with no cover but otherwise in tact, contained eight advertisements for hot water boilers and a lone oil heater for domestic use in the US.
It’s amazing that, despite the technological advances, some things will never change. Hot water and steam are beloved by humans.
I have a question:
Me, like a lot of other people, have a forced air furnace powered by natural gas. Will the Rossi E-Cat work for me (other than heating my “sanitary water”)? I live in Minnesota, and it is now below zero F tonight – it costs a lot to heat a house when it is that temperature outside. A LENR furnace would really save me a lot of money.
Hey Brad! That’s a good question. In some systems, a retrofit would seem to be pretty straightforward, in others, like maybe yours, it won’t be as feasible. But that’s a good question to put to Mr. Rossi.
Hello, Ruby:
On your expression, “Will cold fusion be the energy in the year 2043?”. It will be one of them. But other “New” Energy devices are in the wings, especially those based on electro-magnetism and resonant oscillations.
There are also HHO devices being sold right now, which usually result in significant, and sometimes huge, savings on gasoline/diesel usage. Check out Sterling Allan’s PESWIKI sight on that.
Sorry for the typo, Ruby. “Sight” should be “site”, of course.
Hey modern, there is so much new energy tech on PESN. I can’t even imagine what’s going to be hooking us up in 2043. I could spend all day, every day, learning about it, but alas, my time is limited. I do know that cold fusion is El Supremo in many ways, because of the energy density and the super-abundant fuel. If I can learn how that works, I’ll consider it a life worth lived!
I use to own a beutiful Normandy home built in 1927 in Salem Oregon that used a gravity flow hot water system with radiators. It coast $3000.00 in heating oil a year, but cold fusion would work perfectly in a heating system like that.
