Hoping I can get some opinions on this problem. We did a major house renovation last year and went with a Navien tankless heater with a recirculation pump.
The house is ranch style, the unit is in the garage. The closet sink to the unit is a 1/2 bathroom, then kitchen, then guest bathroom, then master bath.
All the sinks in the house with the exception of the kitchen get very hot water within seconds. The kitchen sink (about 25' from the unit in the garage) is sometimes hot quickly, but most times takes upwards of a few minutes before hot water is at an acceptable level. This doesn't happen with any other sink in the house. The faucet in the kitchen is a kohler model k-24662
I'm having trouble understanding why this would be and if anything can be done about it. Is it possible that the plumber didn't include the kitchen sink on the recirculating pump circuit? Or something else?
Thank you for any insight.
