A call to Tradesman

Why Plumbers, HVAC Techs & Electricians Should Start Paying Attention to Bitcoin Mining and hashrate heating.

There’s a new kind of heat source starting to show up - and it’s creating a new industry for tradesmen who know how to handle it.

Bitcoin mining isn’t just about computers and crypto. It’s about energy. And more specifically: it’s about heat.

A 3,000W Bitcoin miner puts off about 10,000 BTUs per hour, nearly identical to a typical 3,000W electric space heater, but it’s generating heat while also producing Bitcoin. When these mining machines run, they produce large amounts of steady, 24/7 heat - and that heat can now be captured and reused for real-world heating applications:

  • Water heaters

  • Space heating (residential & commercial)

  • Pool & spa heating

  • Saunas & greenhouses

The technology to redirect and repurpose this heat already exists — but very few tradesmen know about it yet.

🔧 Where Tradesmen Fit In

This isn't some future science project. These installs are happening right now:

  • Plumbers: mining-powered water heaters, radiant floor loops, pool circulation lines

  • HVAC Techs: ducted heat, air-to-water systems, ventilation design

  • Electricians: upgraded panels, subpanels, 220V runs, load balancing, safety compliance

Clients who install hashrate heating need professionals like you to size, install, and maintain these systems. If you know how to move water, air, and power—you already have the skills.

💡 Why You Should Pay Attention

  • These systems stack on top of your existing work.

  • Early movers will win local market share.

  • More home and business owners will start asking.

  • Most of your competitors have never even heard of it.

🏗️ Simple Real-World Examples

  • 🔥 A home water heater powered by a small mining unit.

  • 🔥 A pool heated year-round with mining heat.

  • 🔥 A backyard sauna heated by Bitcoin miners.

  • 🔥 A commercial building offsetting winter heat costs.

🚫 No Bitcoin Knowledge Needed

You don’t need to know anything about Bitcoin or crypto.

  • You just need to understand heat.

  • Your job is to help clients move, contain, and safely use that heat.

  • That creates billable work for installs, maintenance, and upgrades.

  • There are current bitcoin mining heat reuse companies and builders capable of getting these applications into consumers hands, but we need your help!

📞 Next Step

This market is still wide open.
