We have a tankless hot water, it takes some time for the hot to make it, so I figure this will kill two birds. 1 hot water is closer to the items, 2 water is moving through pipes in winter.
Have tankless though so not sure what will happen. I did set it to the lowest amount of time turned on, the same time off, and repeat. I can explain more if necessary. The idea was in case it's not enough water to actually trigger the hot water from the heater.
I put one of these in and it has a thermostat inside so it only runs long enough to get hot water to the pump then shuts off until the water starts to cool down. It also has a timer so you set it to only run during the day if you like. It does not really run that much and I noticed no change in my electric usage.
Correct. I installed one of these 20 years ago and it's awesome. When you turn on a hot water faucet and wait for it to warm up the water that you're wasting down the drain used to be hot. The pump is thermostatically controlled and silently pulls water as needed. It sends the water back to the water heater through the cold water line so no water is wasted.
This may not work for OP if an oil fired system literally doesn't keep a tank of hot water ready at all times. It's also probably not a good idea if your pipes run through a concrete slab as that would waste a lot of heat.
