A water saving device for use with domestic hot water systems of the noncirculating storage tank heater type uses a hydraulic motor to drive a water pump to pump water from the hot water pipe to a cold water pipe. Pumping begins when a hot water tap connected to the device is turned on and the water in the hot water pipe is cold. Pumping continues until a temperature sensing element senses that hot water has reached the water saving device and actuates a valve. When hot water is present at the device, the valve permits the hot water to pass directly to the tap instead of driving the hydraulic motor. |
