at least  ~35+ WU's/day (???), but that's a real 'shot in the dark', on my
part!  = )

Remembering the WaterCooled PC heating the aquarium project, wouldn't it be
possible to use the waste heat produced by that fleet, for heating the
house and maybe some hot water? :-)

I had similar thoughts a while ago. However, I wouldn't want my CPUs overclocked and running hot enough for the temperature of my hot water.

With a little added complication, you could use the waste heat to pre-heat the water going into your hot water tank. You could even give a boost using a heat pump. Although, I doubt that such complications would be worthwhile.


I still favour the evaporative cooling ideas as discussed on here some time ago... Should get rid of the cooling fans noise also.
