thats ok I understood the system, of course all this hot water circulating
in pipes all day long will heat the house as a draw back, and at the same
time consume fuel for heating the water back to level, and electricity for
the pump, and we need to cool that house down.. all this to save some water,
and have a little bit of comfort... Geee.. really I think this whole Idea is
a damn lost of resource..
