Benefits of technology

[0011]In another embodiment, the novel method of purge water recovery further includes the step of providing a removable lid. The removable lid is connected to the threaded spout bordering the opening of the expandable container when the purge water is retained within the expanded container. The lid prevents purge water from splashing out of the expanded container during transport of the expanded container to a desired location. It is within the scope of this invention for the expandable container to have a single opening configured to receive purge water, to be sealed with a lid, and to dispense p

Problems solved by technology

This purge water is water at rest and is typically a colder and more undesirable temperature than the water produced from the hot water heater during use.
The purge water that is the cooler standing water being retained within the plumbing

Abstract

A method of purge water recovery in which a hose has an end connected to a shower arm supply pipe located opposite another end having an adapter with a shut-off valve connected to a threaded spout of an expandable container. The expandable container receives purge water from plumbing in association with a water heater when a hot water supply valve is oriented in an open position. The gusset of the expandable container expands when purge water enters the expandable container. The shut-off valve of the hose adapter is closed when a user determines that the water temperature has reached a desirable bathing temperature. The adapter of the hose is removed from the threaded spout of the expandable container by a user. The user places a removable spigot on the threaded spout of the expandable container. The user dispenses the purge water from the expandable container during a subsequent use.
