I'm looking into installing another bathroom (toilet, 2 sinks, shower,

water heater (I've got a 60-gallon indirect water heater). Is that too
far
to run a hot water line? If it is, any suggestions?


You'll be waiting a long time for hot water.

and you would need to insulate the whole line so the water will still be hot
when it gets there.
