🔍 Key Concepts

• Potable water conservation in hot water systems • How long it takes for hot water to reach a fixture and what happens to the water while you wait • Differences between heater type vs. piping layout/flow design

💭 Think About

• When you open a hot water tap far from the heater, what happens to the cold water sitting in the hot water line before the hot water arrives? How could a system design reduce that waste? • Which choice deals with how the water actually moves in the piping rather than just the type of heater? • Think about a ship with long passageways and cabins: which option would best ensure hot water is quickly available at many distant fixtures without dumping a lot of lukewarm water down the drain first?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option changes the distribution piping behavior, not just the heater itself • Ask: which design would keep hot water closer to the fixtures at all times? • Eliminate options that only describe heater construction or fuel/heat source, not water movement in the lines
