Our new Florida patio home has the water heater in the garage. It takes about 70 seconds for hot water to reach the kitchen sink. I would like to remedy that by installing a Watts recirculating pump on the water heater with an associated mixing valve under the sink. However, I don’t understand the piping on top of the water heater.
Attached are two pictures. This appears to be a cross connection for some reason but I don’t know what it does. Can I simply remove it when I install the Watts pump on the hot water discharge line?
