Wasting water with tankless heater
  • That fitting is installed between the hot and cold supply lines at a single location/fixture in the house, usually the farthest away from the heater.

    Sticking can also be a sign that the food isn’t cooked yet, it tends to release once it is seared so don’t be afraid to leave it alone for a bit.
