Many houses being built around Show Low, Lakeside, and Pinetop are including a dedicated hot water return line in their plumbing system - particularly if your home has hydronic heating. (If yours isn't, talk to your builder!)

All items that have been added to your shopping cart prior to the maintenance window, will still be present in your shopping cart once the maintenance is completed.

The first is, install one. If your house has a crawl space or attic that is relatively accesible, we can run a return line through those areas and get you set up that way.

A Hot Water Recirculation Line is a continuation of your hot water line that reroutes the hot water from your furthest fixture back to your water heater. A pump attached to your water heater keeps the hot water moving through the pipes to prevent it from cooling off (causing that cold burst when you open the faucet) and keeps the hot water at the ready.

You will not be able to see pricing, product availability, place online orders, check account AR and order history, or register new users during this time.

As the pump runs, the hot water is pushed through your pipes and then reintroduced into the heater where it gets warmed up to temp and ready for the next use.

The valve allows hot water to "crossover" into the cold water line, and the cold water line is used to recirculate the hot water.
