Situation
When Kevin and Julie Perlinger built their Duluth, Minnesota home five years ago, they paid particular attention to the kitchen; Julie even designed it herself. And while she made sure there was special scaffolding to support her extra-large, extra-heavy granite farmhouse sink, she didn’t give much thought to the distance the water would have to travel from the home’s water heater to reach that sink.

According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, transmission of certain bacteria, viruses, and parasites from raw food or from ill workers to food by way of improperly washed hands, continues to be one of several major factors in the spread of food-borne illnesses. Proper hand washing serves as a vital and necessary public health practice in retail and food service.

There is a need throughout the day for hot water on demand.
