better than pump systems?
Besides the fact that the electrical pumps require an electrical source or operate and make installation more complicated; the noise level of the pumps is often noticeable (waking you up at night) and can also cause interference with television and radio reception (especially as the pumps get older). The typical pump life in these systems is only 18-24 months (as their warranties reflect). Whereas the Hot Water Lobster Instant Hot Water Valve is silent and has a 10-year warranty.
