It only reduces the temperature of your shower if you would otherwise be standing under 100% hot water, which would literally be lethal with a typical hot water system (I'm guessing you don't have a typical hot water system?). It's more likely you are using a mix of, say, 70% hot, 30% cold. If you use this thingy to heat the cold water, you could get the same temperature with maybe 60%/40% mix, thus using less hot water and getting a cheaper and/or longer shower.
- blahblahblah 18y agoPerhaps most people have the thermostat on their water heater set higher than it really needs to be? On the other hand, as a bachelor, I concede that my hot water usage pattern is not the same as an average household with a family of 3 to 5 people. I typically do use 100% hot water for my showers. The only exception to this is if I run the dishwasher or the washing machine a few hours before taking a shower, which will result in 100% hot water being too hot.
