Benefits of technology

The invention provides a system that can supply hot water quickly and efficiently. It saves time waiting for water to heat up from the main tank, avoids water wastage, reduces energy usage, and allows for flexibility in positioning the water heater. The system only requires a low energy consumption electrical heater. Additionally, the invention allows the user to switch off the heater when not needed.

Problems solved by technology

In large houses, especially two-story houses, people are wasting a lot of water waiting for hot water to reach a sink or shower.
It can take a long time for hot water to reach the tap.
And all the water goes directly down the drain while waiting, which can cost a large amount of waste on not just clean water but also energy.
However, installing a circulation pump will either require extra piping system to run hot water or keep hot water running all over the house through existing piping system.
Installing extra piping system for a circulation pump can be a complicated project to most of homes and keeping hot water running all over the house is also a huge waste of energy.

Abstract

A hot water system includes an electrical water heater for instantly heating up cold water running in pipe. The electrical water heater is installed with a bypass switch for users to switch off the system if necessary. To prevent water damage caused by leaking, a pressure relief valve is installed on the outgoing water pipe of the water heater and a drain saddle valve is installed on the drain pipe. Both valves are connected with a water hose. The hot water system will save a lot of time and clean water while waiting for hot water coming from the main water heater. The system allows the user to access instant hot water safely and achieve a much easier and more comfortable life.
