    Hot water delay, installation questions for recirc pump

    We just moved to a new home after 20 years in a home with a dedicated hot water return / recirculating pump system. This new home (built 2014) has no recirc system despite being 4300 sf in size, and I guess we were spoiled before, because waiting several minutes for hot water to show up in the...

    Recirculation pump line length

    I have a renovation of two 8x10 bathrooms on top of each other (8ft ceilings), serviced by one tank right next to lower bathroom. It's all conditioned space. I'm not 100% sure what the plumber plans, but I can't imagine a line longer than 32ft from the tank (probably the upstairs rain shower...

    Recirculating hot water system

    When the recirculating pump begins to run all of the showers drip profusely. The house is new and the builder replace all the valves for the showers but it still occurs wasting thousands of gallons of water.
