It's a very sensible place to put a combi IMHO - next to no dead leg for
the sink hot tap which is probably the one used most.

In a normal domestic house that extra few seconds is not worth talking
about. You could put in a secondary circulation loop to have instant hot
water at every tap (and save on water too) if that really bothers you.

Dead on cue. What a ******.

[A useful bonus of switching to a combi was realising that the hot
water is now drinking quality so for rinsing rice etc just turn up the
HW temp and rinse under hot tap]

And use to fill the kettle and keep the electricity bills right down.

Give some figures about the likely extra cost of installing a combi other
than in the kitchen, the cost of the circulating pump to give near instant
hot water to that kitchen tap, and the likely degradation of the water
quality in that long loop which will effect the taste of tea, etc, made
from it, against the cost of heating *fresh* water in an electric kettle.
And then compare to the cost of using an ordinary kettle on a hob.

And just f**k off back to the planet Zog.
