How to Save 1,000 Gallons of Water Every Month…

With no Effort, Without Even Thinking About It, & Get Instant Hot Water All At Once

Do you ever think about all the cold water going down the drain while you’re waiting for the hot water to start coming out?  You’d be surprised how much water that is.  It’s water drawn unnecessarily from your natural resources, treated at a water treatment plant, sent to your home, sent right down the drain unused, mixed with polluted water, treated at a sewer treatment plant and sent back into a river or lake slightly tainted.  And you get to pay for all that wasted water too. 

By installing a hot water circulating system you can stop all that waste.  It gets you instant hot water where ever you want, and saves you and your family thousands of gallons of water a year.  So when you have a hot water circulating system installed, you will:

1.  Save a lot water
2. Get instant hot water
3. Help the environment and your community by conserving precious resources
4. Pay less on your utility bills
5.  Do it all with no effort or remembering anything on your part

I must admit, it took me a while to see the light about how much water I needlessly wasted before installing a hot water circulating system in our home.  I already knew the benefits.  I’m a licensed Master plumber and have put these in for many customers, but for some reason I procrastinated installing one for myself. 

It was my wife who finally convinced me to do it.  She kept complaining – and rightfully so – about how long it took the hot water to get to the kitchen sink.  She kept saying, “You put them in for everyone but me!”  Isn’t that the way it goes?  Everyone gets one but the plumber’s wife. 

One day I decided to just see how much water I was wasting.  I timed how long it took to fill a 1 gallon container.  It took 30 seconds.  Two and a half minutes later the hot water started coming out of the faucet. 

So that was six gallons of water that went unused down the drain into my septic tank.  More is not better in a septic tank.  What’s worse, I had been putting off installing a hot water circulating system for 4 years.  Conservatively, I wasted over 26,000 gallons of water just at the kitchen sink over the last 4 years.

In light of what I’ve just confessed it’s really embarrassing to keep going, but my kids respectfully argued  too that it took a long time for hot water to get to their bathroom.  I was afraid to test how long it took hot water to get there, but I had to find out.  It was about the same as the kitchen sink scenario. 

I figured I wasted over 52,000 gallons of water over the 4 years I procrastinated installing a hot water circulating system.  The system would have easily paid for itself in lower water bills alone in that amount of time.

So guess what.  I finally got one.  I can’t believe I waited so long.  It’s really nice getting hot water fast at every faucet.  And in this drought it’s really nice saving all that water.

How Much Water Will a Hot Water Circulating System Save Me? 

Let’s look at an average home of 2,500 square feet with 2 ½ bathrooms.

• This home has approximately 125 feet of 3/4 inch pipe. (hot water pipe)
• 125 feet of 3/4 inch pipe holds 3.14 gallons of water.
• 10 draws of hot water per day wastes more than 30 gallons of water while you wait for the hot water to travel through the pipes from the water heater.

So, in a year’s time, the cold water going down the drain while you wait for it to get hot is 11,463 gallons.  With a hot water circulating system, you would save all that wasted water. Our home has about 2,800 square feet with 3 bathrooms.  We’re easily saving 13,000 gallons of water every year with our new hot water circulation system. 

How Much Does All That Wasted Water Cost? 

The current minimum price per 1,000 gallons of water is $7.05 in Cobb County. This includes sewer fees. http://water.cobbcountyga.gov/billing.htm  Of course, the more you use the more Cobb County charges.  The Watts hot water circulating pump will save you approximately 1,000 gallons of water a month, so over a year’s time you would save at least $85.

You’re Not Using Less, You’re Just Cutting Out the Waste 

Doesn’t cutting 1,000 to 1,500 gallons of water a month without remembering to do anything special sound like a really good and easy idea?  Remember, you’re not using less water.  You’re just eliminating the wasted water.

Does Installing a Hot Water Circulating Pump Really Help the Environment?

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, in 2006 there were 273,900 houses in Cobb County, GA.

Let’s imagine a Hot Water Circulating System in just half these homes saving a minimum of 10,000 gallons of water per household per year.  We would save 1,369,500,000 gallons of water.  That’s 1.37 billion gallons of water. The positive environmental impact of this savings is quite significant.  That’s just one county out of 160 in Georgia.

How Does the Watts Comfort System Circulating Pump Work?

• The Comfort Valve is the unique and amazing feature that allows this system to work in any home. Installed at the farthest away faucet from the water heater, the Comfort Valve allows water to circulate back to the water heater through the cold water line. 
• The Comfort Valve’s built in check valve prevents hot water from mixing with cold water when a cold water tap is opened.
• The circulator pump, with a 24 hour timer, installs on the water heater and pumps hot water into the line keeping hot water very close to every faucet.
• The Comfort Valve automatically closes at 98 degrees (+/- 5 degrees F) making hot water available at all of the hot taps in the circuit.

Doesn’t this require new wiring or complicated plumbing?

The unique design of this system uses your home’s existing water pipes so no costly plumbing alterations are necessary.  The Watts Comfort System requires no special wiring either.  The hardest part is altering the water heater plumbing slightly to install the pump. The complete system installs in about 2 hours or less.

How Much Does it Cost?

Most of the time, we can install a Watts Comfort System hot water circulating pump and one comfort valve for $627.00.  That’s about $1.72 a day for a year.  Then it’s paid for, but water conservation, lower utility bills and getting your hot water fast continue year after year.  You don’t need to think about it again.  It’s trouble free, maintenance free and protected by a 2 year guarantee.
