Hot-water Recirculation systems has become more common in Heat Pump Systems or Solar Water Heater Systems to provide instant hot water, improve efficiency and save cost.

A Hot water recirculation system in a centralized hot water supply system, such as a Heat pump, Solar water heater, etc., consists of a recirculation line that connects the hot water supply’s return line to the storage tank.

A recirculation pump is installed on the hot water return line and is responsible for circulating water through the entire line.

The pump is operated by a controller that senses the water temperature in the line, and turns the pump on and off and circulates the water in the line to maintain a constant desired temperature. The controller can also be set to work at preset time intervals to ensure circulation of water during the required times only.

Advantages of providing a Hot-water Recirculation System:

Instant Hot Water: One of the significant advantages of the Hot water recirculation system is its ability to give hot water the instant when any faucet or shower head in your home is opened. The Hot water Recirculation maintains a consistent temperature throughout the pipeline.

Improved Comfort and Convenience: Not only does a heat pump water heater with a recirculation pump and controller improve energy efficiency, but it also provides improved comfort and convenience. With hot water always available, you'll never have to wait for water to heat up when you turn on the tap. The temperature control feature also ensures that you have hot water at the temperature you need, whenever you need it. Say goodbye to cold showers and hello to comfort and convenience!
Water Conservation: Using a Hot water recirculation system saves water. In a hot water line without recirculation, the hot water faucet gives cold water for a few minutes or seconds because the stagnant hot water on the line turns cold over time, so the water gets wasted. A hot water line with recirculation reduces the time for hot water to arrive at the faucet, thus, reducing water wastage. It benefits our environment by reducing water depletion and saving for our future.

Energy Efficiency: In a Hot water recirculation system, the hot water is kept in movement to sustain the temperature, which reduces the energy required to heat the water. A Cycle timer and temperature controller embedded with the system further save energy.

Cost Savings: An initial investment in the Hot water recirculation system can provide significant cost savings in the long run. For households that use a lot of hot water, the cost of heating water can be a significant expense. But with a heat pump water heater with a recirculation pump and controller, you can lower your monthly utility bills. This is because the recirculation pump reduces waste, and the temperature control feature prevents excess energy usage. Over time, the savings on your monthly utility bills can add up.
