Modern building and pool using recovered AM ThermaLink server heat
For hosts

Host AI compute. Reuse the heat.

AM ThermaLink places compact liquid-cooled compute systems at suitable host sites and reuses recovered server heat for pools, buildings, homes, hot water, or other heating needs.

What hosts use the heat for

Anywhere warm water is useful

Recovered heat is delivered through a separated heat exchanger into your existing water or heating loop.

Swimming pool warmed by recovered server heat

Pool heating

Steady, year-round or seasonal pool and spa water heating.

Modern home that could use recovered heat for hydronic heating

Home heating

Hydronic and radiant systems in private homes and villas.

Commercial building with hydronic heating loops

Building heating

Commercial and mixed-use buildings with hydronic loops.

Domestic hot-water system pre-heated by recovered heat

Domestic hot water

Pre-heating hot water tanks and daily hot-water systems.

Hotel and spa pool with constant hot-water demand

Hotel / spa / gym

Pools, spas, showers — hospitality sites with constant demand.

Apartment building with shared hot water and heating

Apartment buildings

Shared hot water and heating across many units.

Greenhouse growing beds that benefit from recovered thermal energy

Greenhouses

Greenhouse and light-industrial thermal loads.

Basic host requirements

What makes a site a good fit

Site eligibility depends on internet, power, location, and heat demand. Not every property qualifies — apply and we’ll review your site, no commitment required.

1Internet

  • Fiber internet preferred, reliable connection required
  • High upload / download speed and low latency preferred
  • We’ll ask your provider, plan speed, and whether 1, 2, 5, or 10 Gbps is available at your address

Internet on us: if your site is eligible, AM ThermaLink covers your internet bill too — the system needs the connection, so we pay for it.

2Electrical

  • 240V power preferred
  • Panel size matters: 100A, 200A, 400A, or commercial service
  • Room for a dedicated 40–60A+ circuit depending on system size
  • Three-phase power opens the door to larger systems

How billing works: AM ThermaLink pays your full electricity bill each month. You reimburse only the difference between the total bill and what the compute system used — so the system's power is on us, and you keep paying just your normal usage. In practice, all you ever see is the savings — and in some areas we cover the entire electricity bill, so you pay nothing at all.

3Heat demand

  • Pool, home, building, hot water, spa, gym, hotel, or apartment demand
  • Current heating method and average monthly bill help size the system
  • Year-round demand is ideal; seasonal (winter or pool season) also works

4Location & climate

  • Your ZIP / city — climate affects heat usefulness and cooling strategy
  • Indoor placement preferred: garage, mechanical room, equipment room, basement, or an outdoor enclosure

5Physical space

  • Space for a server rack or cabinet, ideally near electrical and plumbing
  • Secure, ventilated location with service access
  • We plan around noise sensitivity — liquid cooling runs quiet

6Plumbing & thermal integration

  • Connection near pool equipment, mechanical room, hot-water loop, or hydronic loop
  • A sealed heat exchanger transfers heat between the two loops, so the compute cooling fluid and your water never mix
  • Sensors, controls, shutoffs, and monitoring are part of every install
7 · Site review: host eligibility requires a technical review of internet, power, placement, plumbing, and permitting feasibility. We can’t promise approval — apply now and we’ll review your site.

Host FAQ

Common questions from hosts

What does it mean to host a system?
AM ThermaLink installs and operates a liquid-cooled compute system at your property. The system runs paid compute workloads for our customers, and the heat it produces is transferred into your pool, building, or hot-water system instead of being wasted.
What can the heat be used for?
Pool and spa heating, home and building heating (hydronic), domestic hot water, hotel/gym/spa water, apartment-building heat, and greenhouse or light-industrial loads — anywhere steady warm water is useful.
Do I need fiber internet?
Fiber is strongly preferred and a reliable, fast connection is required — compute customers depend on it. If 1 Gbps+ fiber is available at your address, that’s a good sign. Tell us your provider and plan in the application and we’ll assess it.
How much electrical capacity do I need?
It depends on system size. Small systems need a dedicated 240V circuit (roughly 40–60A) on a panel with spare capacity; larger systems benefit from 400A or three-phase service. A 200A residential panel with spare space is often workable for smaller systems.
Does the cooling fluid mix with my pool or building water?
No. A separated heat exchanger transfers heat between the compute cooling loop and your water loop across a sealed barrier — the fluids never mix. The design includes sensors, shutoffs, and monitoring.
Is the system monitored?
Yes — continuously. GPU utilization, temperatures, water-loop performance, heat transfer, uptime, and safety sensors are all monitored remotely.
Who maintains the system?
AM ThermaLink is responsible for the compute system and its cooling loop — installation, monitoring, and maintenance. Your existing heating equipment remains yours.
How much can I save?
It depends on your heating fuel, rates, climate, and how much the system runs. Recovered heat is designed to offset part of your heating bill — use the savings calculator for a conservative estimate for your site.
Does every property qualify?
No — and we’re upfront about that. Eligibility depends on internet, electrical capacity, location and climate, physical space, plumbing access, and heat demand. Every application gets a technical review before anything moves forward.
How do I apply?
Fill in the application above — it takes about 5 minutes and “not sure” is a valid answer for the technical questions. If your site looks like a potential fit, we’ll reach out for a deeper feasibility review.
