Hi,
I have a three story house with a water heater in the basement. I go
to the bathroom on the top floor to brush my teeth. It takes about 30
seconds or more for the water out of the faucet to become warm. Is
there a robust solution that would shorten that time to about 5
seconds?
Many thanks in advance,
Aaron Fude

You brush your teeth with hot water? OK.
1. There is the device that is constantly circulating the water,
don't recall what they are called, someone else will.
2. You could add one of those instant hot warer electrical heaters in
that bathroom. Don't put out any volume but should be more than
adequate for the brushing of teeth and a cup of coffee.

Run the water while brushing your teeth and the hot water will be there when
you're done. If you're brushing for less than 30 seconds, that's not long
enough. You need to talk to your dentist.
