Your kitchen throws away half the energy it buys.
We turn it back into electricity.
Electofusion is a solid-state system with no moving parts. It bolts onto the heat you already vent, 150°F and
up, and converts a portion of it into electricity you don't have to buy.
Demo install in progress at the Heat Exchange Cafe & Noodle Bar.
First numbers go up right here — good or bad.
0
moving parts. Solid-state, nothing to spin or wear out.
150°F+
Built for low-grade heat, the kind kitchens vent all day.
Bolt-on
Plugs into the exhaust you already have. No rebuild.
Stored
Integrated storage, so you spend it at peak-rate hours.
The problem
Every kitchen pays for its heat twice.
Once to make it. Once to get rid of it.
The heat pouring out of your hood isn't a cost of doing business. It's energy you already bought, and it
leaves the building every minute the line is running.
01
You buy the energy
Gas and electricity to run fryers, ranges, ovens and dish machines from prep to close.
02
Much of it leaves as heat
Exhaust hoods, fryers, dish machines and refrigeration condensers dump it, all day, every day.
03
Then you pay to get rid of it
Exhaust fans and air conditioning work overtime to push that heat out the roof.
Bolt on. Capture. Convert. Spend it when it counts.
Hot exhaust on one side, cooler air on the other, electricity in between. No turbines, no fluids, nothing spinning.
Step 01
Capture
We mount where your exhaust heat is most concentrated. It plugs into the waste stream you already have, so there's no rebuild.
Step 02
Convert
Solid-state cells turn the temperature difference between hot exhaust and the surrounding air straight into DC electricity. No turbine, no fluid, nothing spinning.
Step 03
Store
Proprietary integrated storage banks the power while the kitchen runs, from morning prep to last order.
Step 04
Spend it when it counts
Use it on your schedule: the dinner rush and peak-rate hours, when the electric bill actually hurts.
Status as of October 2026: demo install in progress.
Who it's for
If it breathes heat, your exhaust has a value.
Electofusion needs a steady stream of heat at 150°F or more. Plenty of businesses vent that every day without a second thought.
Where we start
Restaurants, kitchens & food trucks
A kitchen runs 12+ hours a day, throws away massive amounts of heat and pays brutal electric bills. If it works there, in public, the numbers speak for themselves.
A rig turns nearly all of its electricity into heat, then you pay again to cool it. Concentrated, continuous, 24 hours a day. It won't run the whole farm, but every watt you recover is one you already paid for.
Hydraulic systems, barrel heaters and process lines shed heat all shift long. Chris spent a decade keeping machines like these running. He knows where the heat goes.
“I spent 10 years fixing machines. Now I'm rebuilding what they throw away.”
Christopher Dunn kept industrial machines running in Louisville for a decade and kept seeing the same thing:
enormous heat, paid for twice and vented. So he started The Heat Exchange Corporation and built Electofusion.
Chris chose a community round over chasing venture capital, so the people who live with the problem can own
part of the fix.
We're testing the waters on Wefunder: reserving a spot moves no money and creates no obligation.
We are "testing the waters" to gauge investor interest in a possible offering under Regulation Crowdfunding. No money or other consideration is being solicited, and if sent, will not be accepted. No offer to buy securities is being made, and no part of the purchase price can be accepted until an offering statement is filed and only through an intermediary’s platform. Any indication of interest involves no obligation or commitment of any kind.
