Save Water and Energy with Metlund Hot Water D’MAND System

The Metlund Hot Water D’MAND System is an electronically controlled valve and pumping system that rapidly distributes hot water from the water heater to fixtures in your home. Because it circulates hot water only on demand, it uses less energy than continuously circulating systems.

The hot water system gets the hot water in your water heater moved to any fixture in your home in just seconds.  At the push of a button, the cool water that you normally let run down the drain is circulated back to the water heater through your system’s cold water line. The result is that you have no more waiting for hot water because it is right where you need it when you need it. With the cold water still in the cold water line and not down the drain, you also save water and energy while reducing sewage costs.

Installation is easy for homes with existing standard plumbing; it is usually installed under the sink that is the farthest from the water heater.  On your demand, the pump pulls hot water from the water heater moving only the cold water back through the cold water line into the water heater to replace the hot water being moved. The system automatically shuts off by a thermo sensor and valve at a 3 to 5 degree temperature change. 

The cost of the system, which runs between $243 to $330, plus tax, is dependent upon the distance from where the system is installed and the water heater. With a pay back of one year or less in savings, the Metlund Hot Water D’MAND system is just one more way Ripley Power & Light is trying to help you reduce your energy consumption and costs. You can pay for your purchase on your monthly utility bill.
