Laing Hot Water Recirculation Pump January 29, 2009

Saves water and keeps warm to hot water at your sink and tub faucets. This very small pump is installed at the faucet farthest from the hot water heater and keeps warm to hot water almost instantly available at the faucet. It dumps the cooled warm water back into the cold water line. Very easy to install. Once you have one, you won't want to be without one.
Works great - If only we knew about this earlier December 31, 2008

We live on the third floor and for five years we have waited two minutes for hot water. No longer. We installed this pump yesterday and now we're kicking ourselves for not buying one sooner. We have hot water in just a few seconds. We are also pleasantly surprised that the pump is completely silent; I expected it to at least make a soft hum, but it does not.
The pump is easy to install, but it was admittedly a hassle to have an outlet installed. We hired an electrician and, while it went smoothly, it was another $300 in addition to the cost of the pump. However, we considered one of the pumps that goes on the water heater, but it wouldn't work for our setup (the water heater is connected with braised copper pipe, not flexible tube).
Awesome! October 28, 2008

Does exactly what it is advertised to do. We don't have to wait 4 minutes for warm water in the Master bath anymore. The only drawback is that some "warmish" water does come out when you turn on the cold water.. but that is documented and normal. Easy installation.
Great little pump September 26, 2008

Installed this pump in three steps. First, installed a 115-volt outlet under the sink that was farthest from the water heater, a distance of about 50 feet. There were three other sinks and two showers all hooked to the hot water pipe that ran between this farthest sink and the water heater. Second, I insulated the hot water pipes leading from the water heater to this farthest sink. Most of these hot water pipes were located in a suspended ceiling. If the pipes were in a wall, I ignored trying to insulate them, figuring the wall was enough insulation. Third, I installed the pump under the sink. I set the timer to operate whenever I plan on using hot water in any of the sinks (i.e., 0600-2400). I have had the pump installed for about a year and appreciate it every day. When the water at the sink cools to 85 degrees, the pump cycles "on." When the water temperature reaches 95 degrees at the sink, the pump cycles "off." The water from the hot water side gets pumped to the cold water side so that the cold water is about 90 degrees, but that water cools rapidly. When the cold water faucet is turned "on," the cooler water quickly gets to the faucet. This pump is perfect for my needs.
Works Great April 30, 2008

I've had this Laing hot water re-circulator for four years. Our water heater is over 100' from our kitchen and it took forever to get hot water to do the dishes. Now it's almost instantaneous. We save $ money on our water bill and, coupled with a water heater timer, we save on electricity too.
