The Metlund® Hot Water D'MAND® System (a high performance pump, integrated controller and electronic zone valve), requires no special plumbing. It is designed for use with any hot water heating system to provide energy and water savings. It's easy to install in new or existing homes or businesses. Savings of energy and water, plus extending the life of water heaters, has a significant return on investment. Federal regulations require the use of low flow fixtures (1½ gallon restrictors on fixtures and 2½ gallon restrictors on showers). Since eight out of ten homes have long waits for hot water at one or more fixtures, it is easy to see the added convenience and cost savings of instant hot water delivery. Click Here For Pricing Information Features How It Works As the ambient temperature water in the cold water line travels towards the hot water heater, the D'MAND System fills the hot water line with hot water. When the hot water reaches the D'MAND System, a thermal sensor (thermistor) senses a temperature rise and quickly closes the zone valve while it shuts the pump off. The sophisticated electronic circuitry that does this is attached to the high-performance pump housing. This results in getting hot water to the fixtures four to five times quicker (on average), greater convenience in not having to wait, a savings in water and energy, and a reduction in sewage costs. As a by-product of these savings, a cumulative result is the improvement of air quality. The Metlund D'MAND System can utilize the cold water line as a return line or use a dedicated return line. By using the existing cold water line, it is easy to retrofit existing homes or businesses. Special plumbing is not needed, and since the System will not allow for hot water to cross over to the cold water line, all the cold water fixtures still have cold water. |
