Hot Water Lobster Instant Hot Water Valve



Since the thermal convection takes place within the hot water tank, we
have had success with hot water tanks below the valve, on the same level
as the valve as well as hot water tanks on levels above the valve.
The Hot Water Lobster Instant Hot Water Valve is intended to create a
closed loop within your hot water system.  Any facets or showers along
your hot waterlines (between your tank and the valve) will have faster hot
water.
Without seeing your plumbing layout it is difficult to determine the best
location and number of units required.  Typically one unit is all that is
necessary (located at the end or close to the end of your plumbing run).
In the event you have two separate plumbing runs from your hot water tank:
two units may be required (located at the end of each plumbing run). It us
unlikely that you would need more than this.
The thermal convection (warm water rising and cool water sinking), which
takes place within your existing hot water tank, and the normal use of
cold water create a higher water pressure on the hot water side of your
plumbing system. This pressure differential circulates the warm water
through your plumbing system.  Your existing check valve (on the hot water
side of your hot water tank only) prevents the back flow of hot water into
your tank.

When the hot water cools at the Hot Water Lobster Valve, the valve slowly
opens allowing the cooler water to cross through the valve to the
cold-water side of the plumbing. The thermal convection (within the hot
water tank) draws the cooler water (from the cold water pipes) to the
bottom of the hot water tank, while it forces the hotter water (from the
hot water tank) into the hot water pipes.  When the hot water reaches the
valve, the valve slowly closes and stops the crossover flow of water.  The
cycle repeats when valve cools below the adjustable setting. Regular use
of cold water (sprinklers, toilets and etc.) create a momentary low
pressure on the cold water side of you plumbing system, which also helps
circulate the water through the Hot Water Lobster Instant Hot Water Valve.

The Hot Water Lobster Instant Hot Water Valve does have a 30-day
unconditional money back guarantee, which should provide you with adequate
evaluation time.

I hope this helps.
