I once saw a spa that was using a liquid cooled bank of computers to heat their pool water. It involves a liquid-to-liquid heat exchanger so they're not pumping chlorinated pool water through their servers but...I wish we did more of that. Server farms are a source of heat, lots of other things need heat.
