Hot water as soon as you turn on a shower valve is a great feeling on a cold morning. The same is true at your kitchen sink or any other plumbing fixture. As our lives become faster paced, we don't want to wait for anything. The installation of a hot water re-circulating loop system will allow you to have hot water at your fixtures. Those people who have their heaters below the piping system get the re-circulating work done for free Those who live in slab houses or who have hot water lines below the heater must use inexpensive in-line re-circulating pumps. The point is that you do not have to wait for hot water.
If you are building a new home or rehabilitating one, now is the time to put in a re-circulating loop! You will have no trouble installing the return loop lines and insulating all of the essential pipes.
