Why does it take 90 seconds to get hot water from tank to faucet?

That's just how long it takes to get the water that is sitting in the pipe out. Unless you have a circulating pump on the line so that there is always hot water at the faucet, it always takes a bit of time for the water to get hot. The hot water is in the tank, not the pipe connecting it to the faucet. There is nothing in the pipe to keep the water hot.

Unless there is a recirculating pump the hot water has to come from the hot water heater. Depending on how far away it is from the faucet, it can take 15 to 30 seconds for the hot water to get there. Since there is nothing in the pipe to keep the water hot, it cools down between uses.


Why doesn't the shower the furthest from the hot water heater never get more than warm and the shower closest to it gets nice and hot?
