    Tankless water heater and Circulator pump

    you would think the sharkbite valve fixes it? an update, plugging in the pump seems to fix the issue. however, im not seeing that as a long term fix as I dont desire to pay the gas bill, or void the warranty on my THWH. the condensation drain is not an ideal install either, it sags in the...

    Tankless water heater and Circulator pump

    the faucets arent far from the tankless unit. the unit is right under the master bath and it takes a solid minute for the water to heat up. additionally, the unit is set at 120F and the water doesnt even come close to reaching that temp, as you can stand under the shower head with it on full...
