Not the health of the sperm, but the reduction of the functionality of the delivery mechanism. Shrinkage! Paul

Can you confirm that the water pressure for both hot and cold feeds to the shower/mixer tap are the same. -- Best Regards: Baron.

If demand for water exceeds a level in a period of time. It'll increase the temperature level and maintain it for ~ 2 hours after non use. From there on, it keeps it at a lower level to save energy. So, if I want real hot water when showing, I first need to run the shower for a bit to force the burner to come on. And then, every one in the house can take their shower with plenty of real hot water as long as they do it with in 2 hours each. After that, the system then simply measures the time of refills and if there is a large gap, it just simply keeps the water warm.. It does save nicely on fuel oil. |
