I am finally building my dream shop! A 40X30 metal building. As a concession to the family, one gable end will have a porch near the pool and I am putting in a bathroom so the kids don't troop throug

Tankless units need a lot of power when the water is flowing, because they have to heat the water basically instantly. Generally they have a limited temperature rise too, so the hot water may be coo

As you have learned, they are quite expensive. I don't think it is because they cost that much to produce, but companies, especially Ebay sellers are taking advantage of their popularity. check with

Think solar. You're in GA. You'll use the pool when it's sunny. Probably not for showers, just a wash-up after "potty"? You only need a few gallons. Build it yourself. A fun project. Peter C In sunle

Any problem with tapping off the hot water in the house? You can run it directly off and just wait for the hot water to get to the spigot when needed. If it's not a far run, this will work just fine.

That's a nifty idea. But why would the valve need to be thermostatic ? Why not just a solenoid valve that only opens when the pump is running ? Seems like this would be easy to build yourself, and r

Yea, I thought it was pretty cool too! I asked the same question of the folks demonstrating the system and they couldn't tell me. My assumption is that the controller for the pump motor was just a ti

Paul, you have done a lot of work that most of us tend to overlook in preparing this, one thing that is slightly off though is the washing machine use. The companies that prepare these type tables se
