Dedicate and Recirculate.
Install a dedicated hot water line to the dishwasher and a hot water recirculation line with a mixing valve to the remainder of the fixtures. By relegating the hottest water to a dedicated line, you can improve the washing power of your dishwasher and reduce radiant heat loss in your recirculation line, which supplies 120°F water to the remainder of your equipment.
Mandate the use of faucet aerators.
Pots fill faster without aerators; but missing aerators turn faucets from a 2-gallon/minute load into a 7-gallon/minute drain on your water heating equipment. Your equipment was not sized for this “timesaving kitchen technique” and is and burning more fuel dollars to make up the difference. If your kitchen can’t serve without a faster faucet, perhaps it’s time to update your sizing requirements.
