A long 1" black pipe on the roof can provide plenty of hot water in summer for showers.
By the way, pipes are one of those things that are both metric and imperial in metric countries. We have two different series of pipes here in Italy, one with 1/2, 5/8, 1, 1 1/4 inches and one in millimeters. Gardening leans toward inches and those sturdy black plastic pipes are at least 1".
