Default Hot water in toilets and urinals - commercial bldg.

Do you mean remove the squeeze valve from the sprayer?

I don't know where check valves would normally be in a
system like
this, but what's happening is that when this valve is left
on, it
creates a path between the hot side and the cold side
without allowing
the water to exit when the sprayer is not in use. Also, the
recirculating pump must be supplying greater pressure to the
hot side
than the cold. You could install check valves at that
sink...or remove
the sprayer so people don't leave it on...
