| So what do you do while you wait for the shower to warm up? Do you run the water while you check your e-mail, fix breakfast, or even take the dog for a walk? Fret no more! Uponor Wirsbo, Inc. is pleased to announce the “hottest” product of the year: the D'MAND® Hot Water Delivery System. Wirsbo’s D'MAND system provides hot water quickly, resulting in energy and water savings for today's homes. It is installed with the Wirsbo AQUAPEX® plumbing system. D'MAND features a pump, which is activated by either a button or a motion sensor located near the plumbing fixture — the kitchen sink, bathroom sink or shower. Once the pump is activated, hot water reaches the fixture in just seconds. A temperature sensor detects when hot water arrives at the fixture and automatically turns off the pump so you don't waste water or energy. Quickly and easily installed during new home construction, the D'MAND system uses a Structured Plumbing® layout. This type of layout incorporates a loop of tubing that starts at the hot water supply line and returns to the heater where it tees into the main line supplying cold water to the heater. AQUAPEX®, an innovative plumbing system for potable water, uses flexible, lightweight and durable Wirsbo crosslinked polyethylene (PEX) tubing instead of rigid copper pipes. Wirsbo tubing doesn't pit, leak or corrode like copper, and eliminates irritating noises, and comes with a 25-year warranty when installed by a Wirsbo-trained professional.
