You need to conduct lots of heat, it's the heat flux that generates
the Voltage. Keeping the delta T high across the junction pairs is
better achieved between ambient incoming air and hot combustion gases.
If you use hot water as the cold sink then you lose the difference
between the ambient temperature and your hot water.
