LAS VEGAS - A U.S. company is turning hot water heaters into Bitcoin miners. Superheat unveiled its innovative superheat H1 at CES 2026, a 50-gallon water heater that simultaneously heats water and generates cryptocurrency.
Teh H1 differs from customary electric water heaters by utilizing the heat produced from its built-in ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit) mining module to warm the water. Superheat claims the device consumes roughly the same amount of electricity as a standard electric heater, but allows owners to earn income through Bitcoin mining while reducing utility costs.
This isn’t the first attempt to combine home appliances with crypto-mining. Though, Superheat’s approach focuses on maximizing efficiency by repurposing waste heat. The company plans to release further details regarding the H1’s mining capabilities and potential earnings in the coming weeks.
