Frequently Asked Questions
"I'd like to have hot water without much of a wait. How can I do this? "
The best solution is generally a hot-water recirculation system. This consists of a small pump and a return line from your farthest fixture. The pump mounts near the bottom of your water along with a swing check valve.

"Does this use up a lot of energy?"
It does use energy, but not as much as you'd think. And with a timer and/or a thermostat you will use even less. You're reducing water waste, and get the benefits of quick hot-water.
We highly recommend insulating all of your hot water pipes.

"On your flanges, what does 'ISO' mean?"
The ISO (isolation) flanges have a screwdriver shut-off built into them so the pump can be removed from the system without turning off the water supply.
