Potable water fitting type add-on

Here is the updated, professionally polished, and complete product listing copy for the TDX Compact | TDX3240.

It incorporates the universal Direct-Glue & Universal Stack Integration advantage (covering both ABS and PVC plastic drain lines) while keeping all the high-density, distributor-focused sales points sharp.

TDX Compact | TDX3240 (33.59% Efficiency)

The Distributor Specialty — Low-Cost, High-Volume, Direct-Glue Convenience

The TDX Compact (TDX3240) is the ultimate high-volume, cost-effective entry point for modern drain water heat recovery (DWHR). Specifically engineered to solve the real-world constraints of tight mechanical layouts, this ultra-low-profile unit delivers a powerful punch in a compact 24-inch frame. It is the premier choice for distributors and high-volume residential builders working on townhomes, multi-family units, and entry-level subdivisions.

By capturing falling-film thermal energy from greywater to pre-heat incoming cold water, the TDX Compact introduces reliable energy-efficiency points to standard builds without breaking the budget. Operating entirely passively, it features zero moving parts, zero electrical requirements, and zero ongoing maintenance.

Intertek Verified Performance Data

  • 9.5 LPM / 2.5 GPM Flow Rate: 33.59% Efficiency (6.18 kW / 21,100 BTU/h)

  • 7.0 LPM / 1.85 GPM Flow Rate: 38.75% Efficiency (5.11 kW / 17,436 BTU/h)

  • 5.5 LPM / 1.45 GPM Flow Rate: 41.83% Efficiency (4.41 kW / 15,047 BTU/h)

Key Technical Advantages

  • Direct-Glue & Universal Stack Integration: Built with integrated connection hubs, allowing installers to solvent-weld (glue) the unit directly inline into standard ABS or PVC plastic drain stacks using standard solvent cement—or connect seamlessly using standard mechanical transition couplings—completely eliminating the need for complex adaptors or open-flame soldering near wood framing.

  • Self-Scouring Solid Waste Passage: The central core features completely smooth, continuous interior copper walls with zero internal restrictions or baffles. Standard residential solid waste passes through seamlessly with zero clogging risk.

  • Factory-Integrated PEX Ports: Features built-in PEX-ready manifold connections, slashing jobsite installation times by eliminating the need for separate copper-to-PEX transition adapters.

  • Highest Performance-per-Inch: Maximizes thermal transfer density over an ultra-short footprint, delivering an impressive 33.59% baseline efficiency where larger units simply won’t fit.

  • The Distributor Champion: Compact, lightweight architecture permits ultra-dense palletizing and lower logistics costs, maximizing wholesale inventory efficiency.

  • Dual-Wall Safety Integration: Features a fully certified double-wall separation barrier (CSA B55.2) with a vented leak path, ensuring 100% security for the potable water supply.

  • Ultra-Low Pressure Drop: The advanced manifold configuration keeps hydraulic resistance minimal, preserving full-volume shower performance even in low-pressure municipal zones.

  • Lightweight and Agile: Weighs an ultra-light 9.33 lbs (4.23 kg), turning difficult, tight-space installations into a fast, single-person job.

  • Lifetime Material Integrity: Crafted from premium, high-conductivity copper that delivers up to 30 to 50 years of continuous, passive thermal recycling.

Ideal Applications

  • High-Density and Multi-Family Residential: Perfect for modern townhome developments and multi-unit projects with restricted vertical plumbing stacks.

  • Entry-Level Code Requirements: A seamless, drop-in solution to capture early-tier energy framework targets at the lowest capital cost-per-door.

"Where space is at a premium, performance shouldn't be. The TDX Compact fits into the tightest mechanical stacks, glues directly into ABS or PVC lines, and provides a premium, safety-rated upgrade at a price point engineered for high volume."
