Wasting water with tankless heater
Wasting water with tankless heater
It takes a few minutes for my tankless water heater to warm up, so we end up wasting a lot of water in our shower. Is there a way to avoid this? A friend mentioned a “comfort valve” or something? What is it and how does it work? Or is there another solution? Thx!

Everyone is mentioning recirculation systems which will solve your problem. Just keep in mind that if you are constantly circulating the water through your heater, you will also be constantly heating the water. So you will stop wasting water and start wasting heat instead. It won't be a huge amount and you may live somewhere you need to heat your house anyway.
