Hi all,
My kitchen faucet takes 2 mins (3 gallons) to warm up. I have a whole house tankless water heater (7.5gpm), and I'm on a slab with a 2 story home so can't easily run wire for an on-demand nor a water return line for re-circulation system. Also with my garbage disposal and an RO system, I don't have room for a storage tank.
I've been reading and reading for ideas on how to stop wasting water with not much luck until learning about new tankless water systems with built in recirculating pumps.
Would something like this be a possibility for me? Are there options to retrofit older systems? I'm still a little confused on what tells the system to recirculate. If anyone could offer any advice, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!
