Despite what some may claim, instant water heaters, of the sort one
sees in houses, won't run all of this lot. What you need is a stored
hot water system, probably with a fairly large amount of storage.


If all outlets were on, a stored water system would trickle out too.


That depends on the number of cylinders, as well as the pipework and
head. It would certainly be possible to design and build a system
where the water trickled out of some of the taps if they were all
turned on, but that's not something anyone other than a cowboy would
do.
