Lengthy pipe run for kitchen hot water tap?
I live and own a long narrow bungalow with the hot water cylinder at one end and the kitchen hot water tap some 17 meters distance fom the cylinder. Every time hot water is drawn from the kitchen tap it takes upwards of a minute before the water is hot. Apart from being frustrating it is a waste of water. The pipework is 15mm copper pipe. Would a dual pipe ring system help to get the hot water quicker. Are there other solutions to the problem?
