Will address my water conservation challenge at a future date. Other renovations in the house are proceeding.

Renovation project still on hold due to supply chain issues. I will discuss the hot water problem with my contractor.

No progress yet on in-line water heater. Starting a bathroom renovation project though which will include low-flow faucets.

My plan is to correct a long-standing water waste situation in my home built in 1972. There is a long distance between the kitchen sink, dishwasher, laundry room, and the hot water tank. To get the proper hot water temperature to the dishwasher I have to manually run a couple of gallons of water down the drain between fill cycles just to keep it hot. My plan involves a rather expensive plumbing solution of placing either an inline heater at the three points of use or a small 5 gallon electric unit in the laundry room and rerouting the hot water line to those three areas.
