This may be a useful device but it will not save on the cost of heating
water.  In fact, keeping the water in the pipe between the H2O heater and
the faucet heated will add to your energy usage.  The water in the pipe is
constantly losing energy due to radiant cooling.  To make up for this the
water heater must run more.
