Favor drained, washable cores and crevice-free joints so chloride cannot pool and start corrosion. Specify marine-grade fasteners, frames, and coatings, and plan a fresh-water rinse cycle for vessels that operate in heavy salt spray. For engine-room ventilation the recovered heat can pre-warm intake air or service spaces, cutting heater load during cold transits. Where weight matters, compare aluminum against stainless on a life-cycle basis rather than first cost. Confirm coating standards and material certificates at procurement so the unit matches the vessel class rules.
