Recover heat produced by AI, compute, or compatible owner-provided hardware.
COMPUTE SOURCES
DIFFERENT COMPUTERS.
DIFFERENT COMPUTERS.
ONE USEFUL HEAT STREAM. Integrated. Liquid-cooled. Owner-provided. Adapter-connected.
CloudBoiler is being developed to receive thermal energy from multiple compute configurations, from integrated systems to future source-adapter concepts.
01
MANIFESTO
Your home is becoming the edge of the compute grid.
Every AI inference, every render, every simulation generates heat. CloudBoiler is being developed to route that heat where a home can actually use it.
Compute creates heat
Every workload — AI inference, rendering, simulation — generates thermal energy. CloudBoiler is being designed to capture it at the source.
One home, many uses
Recovered heat routes through a managed thermal bus to household branches you choose to enable — hot water, hydronics, storage, and more.
Managed, not one-off
Isolation, service states, and controlled rejection keep the platform safe and serviceable across time — not an appliance you throw away.
02
HOW IT WORKS
From compute work to useful home heat.
Computers create heat as they work. CloudBoiler is being developed to recover that heat and make it available to a managed network of household thermal uses.
Receive the recovered heat through a managed domestic thermal bus.
Direct thermal energy among selectable household branches.
Apply it to hot water, air heating, hydronics, storage, pools, or other supported thermal loads.
Support isolation, purge, fill, bleed, recommissioning, and controlled heat rejection at a high level.

WHAT CAN CLOUDBOILER HEAT?
Put recovered heat to work around the home.
CloudBoiler is being developed as a branchable thermal platform. Different homes may use different combinations of thermal branches.
Domestic hot water
Use recovered compute heat to support everyday household hot-water demand.
CORE DEVELOPMENT CATEGORYHydronic space heating
Route heat to compatible radiators, fan coils, baseboard, or radiant systems.
ENGINEERING REVIEWHVAC / heated air
Transfer recovered heat into conditioned air through an air-side hydronic accessory.
FUTURE PILOT CATEGORYThermal storage
Store useful heat in buffer or thermal-mass systems for later use.
CORE DEVELOPMENT CATEGORYPool / spa
Direct suitable excess heat to water-heating branches where appropriate.
FUTURE PILOT CATEGORYControlled heat rejection
Managed fallback path when household thermal loads cannot accept more heat.
CORE DEVELOPMENT CATEGORYBYOC / source adapters
Allow compatible owner-provided or alternative compute hardware to participate as a heat source.

SYSTEM LAYERS
One platform, five clean layers.
A shared model for what CloudBoiler is designed to do — from compute to routed household heat.
01
COMPUTE SOURCE
AI, simulation, rendering or compatible workloads generate heat as they run.
02
HEAT CAPTURE
A liquid-cooling or heat-capture interface receives thermal energy from the compute source.
03
THERMAL BUS
Recovered heat enters a managed CloudBoiler thermal bus that coordinates supply, return, and monitoring.
04
THERMAL BRANCHES
The bus makes thermal energy available to selected household branches — hot water, hydronics, storage, HVAC, pool and more.
05
MONITORING · SERVICE · REJECTION
Isolation, purge, fill, bleed, recommissioning, and a controlled rejection path keep the system safe and serviceable.

FLEXIBLE COMPUTE SOURCES
What can drive the platform?
The thermal platform is being developed to work with more than one kind of compute — from integrated CloudBoiler hardware to compatible owner-provided sources through developmental BYOC adapters.
Integrated CloudBoiler compute
Purpose-built compute hardware integrated with the thermal platform.
CORE DEVELOPMENT CATEGORYLiquid-cooled AI / server hardware
AI accelerators, GPUs, and server hardware designed for direct-to-chip or immersion cooling.
ENGINEERING REVIEWOwner-provided computers
Compatible owner-provided hardware paired through supported thermal interfaces.

WHY IT MATTERS
Three ideas, one flexible platform.
01
USE HEAT TWICE
Compute consumes electricity and creates heat. CloudBoiler seeks to make that heat useful.
02
MOVE COMPUTE CLOSER TO THE LOAD
Distributed compute can place thermal output near the homes and buildings that can use it.
03
BUILD A FLEXIBLE THERMAL PLATFORM
A branchable system can serve more than one appliance or one thermal use.
A
COMPUTE IS THE HEAT SOURCE
Compute performs work. That work generates heat.
CloudBoiler treats the compute-heat relationship as the starting point — not as a side-effect to hide.
Thermal capture makes recovered heat available to the platform. The platform then routes it through the managed thermal bus to whichever branches are enabled for that home.
No promise of workload availability, guaranteed utilization, or compute revenue is made.
C
SOURCE ADAPTER CONCEPT
Not a product yet — a concept under exploration.
A source-adapter concept would let compatible owner-provided hardware connect to the thermal platform through a supported interface.
Conceptually: computer → cooling interface → heat-extractor / source adapter → thermal bus. Enclosure dimensions, compatibility lists, hardware specifications, connector details, and installation instructions are not being published.
D
WHAT BYOC DOES NOT MEAN
Read the fine print before we write it.
BYOC is a developmental concept. Here is what it explicitly is not.
- Not every computer will be compatible.
- No universal retrofit promise.
- No consumer self-installation.
- No guaranteed compute income or utilization.
- No guaranteed performance.
- No final compatibility list — yet.
E
COMPUTE PRIVACY / LOCAL USE
Cautious language, because outcomes vary.
Some configurations may support local or distributed compute use cases.
What is not being claimed: that data never leaves the home; that privacy is total; that cybersecurity is guaranteed; that offline AI is guaranteed; that resilience is guaranteed.
The platform's privacy posture will be described precisely once validated — not before.
