Default I'm dissapointed

How far is the tank and pump run going to be ? Is it all insulated ?
I have known people that turned off the recirc. pump and did without it
as it ran far to much money out of the bank to the electric company.

If the far end is a xyz - then get a local demand heater in line that
your tank feeds. So the local demand doesn't work much if only at
startup. Doesn't have to be a monster just heat the water between it
and the hot water heater and if the pipe is insulated it turns off until
you run the tank cool and then you always get hot from the local.

Several days ago I posted a question about hot water recirculation. I
explained what I wanted to do and NOBODY addressed it. There were
responses but these responses did not mention my main question. In
fact responses included options which I had explicitly ruled out.
There used to be a wealth of good advice here. What's the problem with
posting something that is appropriate? When folks post questions here
and I think I can help I post replies that actually address the
questions. I don't post ruminations that won't help.
