Abstract

See full text

A method of improving hot water supply performance of a water heater is provided. The method includes coupling an outlet port of a water tempering device to the cold water inlet port of a water heater for delivering cold water from the cold water supply line into the water storage tank. The inlet port of the tempering device is coupled to the hot water outlet port of the water heater for receiving hot water from the water storage tank to the hot water supply line. A conduit of the tempering device is positioned between the inlet and outlet ports of the tempering device for diverting a portion of the cold water delivered from the cold water supply line into the conduit. The tempering device mixes the diverted cold water with the hot water received from the water storage tank, and delivers the mixed water into the hot water supply line.
