Supercharge Your Tankless Water Heater - Get Fast Hot Water and Be Green!
While it's true that tankless water heaters save energy and can provide an endless supply of hot water, it's also true that tankless units take longer to get the hot water to the fixtures. Since a tankless heater needs to heat the water before it can deliver hot water to you, you have to wait longer. The only way to get the hot water of course is to run the faucet. So while you run the faucet and wait, you are dumping gallon after gallon of pure clean water down the drain. Water that required energy for pumping and treating it. Pumping and treating the water uses energy which in turn means green house gasses being released into the atmosphere.
The heater can be pictured as a long piece of pipe coiled up and placed over a fire. As the water flows through the pipe it gets hotter. In order to reach full temperature it has to stay in the fire for a certain period of time. It will take longer if the water starts out colder. If you speed up the flow of water it will get cooler, unless you add more fire. With the old storage heaters the tank full of hot water is ready to go the moment the faucet is opened so you get your hot water faster.
With tank type heaters what has been done in the past to both speed up the delivery of hot water and eliminate running the water down the drain while you wait is to create a loop in the hot side of the plumbing so you can pump the hot water around the loop, keeping the pipe full of hot water. That way when you turn on the faucet you get instant hot water every time whenever you want it. It works great with a tank type heater except for the fact that it uses a whole lot of energy keeping the piping warm.
But you can't do that with the tankless unit because tankless heaters turn on when they detect water flowing through them. Usually it takes ½ gallon per minute of flow or more to activate most tankless heaters. Most circulating systems don't produce that much flow. If they did, then the water heater would be on all of the time. Using a standard circulating system with a tankless heater will void the warranty in almost every case anyway.
There is another type of hot water delivery system called a demand system that will work just fine with tankless water heaters. The way it works is a small pump is installed under the sink furthest from the water heater. When you want hot water you press a button and the demand system pumps the water at high speed from the water heater to the fixture. The system has a temperature sensor monitoring the temperature of the water, and when it senses an increase in temperature it shuts off the pump. This prevents hot water from entering the cold water lines.
Since the pump only runs for a few seconds at a time it uses very little energy. Typically it uses less than .00 per year in electricity. It doesn't use any more heat energy than a standard plumbing system. It saves 100% of the water normally run down the drain waiting for the hot to arrive.
Demand systems are suitable for use with tankless water heaters since the pump only runs for a short time, and will not void the warranty of the water heater. Not all demand systems have strong enough pumps to run tankless water heaters though, so you should check with the manufacturer before you make the purchase.
Metlund makes a demand system they call a D'mand system. They have several models, and I think the largest model has a strong enough pump to use with a tankless heater. Metlund's d'mand pumps range from 1/40 horsepower for the smallest to 1/8 horsepower for the biggest. Chilipepper makes a demand system, and they only make one model, the CP6000. The CP6000 has the most powerful pump of any system on the market, (approximately 1/3 horsepower) and will work with any tankless water heater.
Another reason for using a more powerful pump is that the more power the pump has the faster the hot water will arrive at the fixture.
By combining your energy efficient tankless water heater with a hot water demand system you get the best of both worlds...you are energy efficient and you conserve water. It's a great feeling to know that you are doing your part to protect the environment and conserve our natural resources every time you use hot water.

Improve Your Putting Dramatically - Get Custom Fitted!
Tour Players, Instructors and avid golfers realize the importance of a computerized swing analysis, and now the entire golf world can benefit from a computerized putting stroke analysis and custom fitted putters.
Just as irons and woods should be custom fit to an individual's stance and swing, so should your putter. And, while the importance of a putter that looks good at address cannot be overstated, a properly fit putter can have a dramatic effect on putting performance.
Why is it important to have a putter fit to an individual's putting style? If the toe of the putter is not level and is either up or down, it can immediately misdirect the ball offline. If the individual's putter is not square at impact, it can also immediately misdirect the ball offline.
If the loft of the putter is wrong (most putters have between 3 and 4 degrees of loft), the ball can immediately go airborne or be driven into the ground, which will cause the ball to bounce. When the ball makes contact with the ground it can skip, hop or skid which can affect the speed of the ball.
Improper loft can easily misdirect the ball offline when it comes back in contact with the ground. How important is the loft? Using baseball or softball as an example, if you were playing shortstop, what would be easier to judge, a ball hit to you in the air or a hard ground ball that bounces 2 or 3 times before it gets to you? The problem with the ground ball is every time the ball bounces it can easily change directions or speed, you never know what it's going to do or where it's going to go. The same principle applies to improper loft on a putter, if the ball leaves the ground it can very easily be misdirected when it makes contact with the ground.
One should note however that there exist two schools of thought as it relates to custom putter fitting - Static Fitting and Motion Fitting. This article will not debate the merits of either but simply explain and inform the consumer of these two types of systems currently available to them.
There are at least three companies that offer custom fitting specifically while each major golf manufacturing company offer computer analysis. Check with each company to see whether they offer both service to the general public as well as a static fitting through their web site or have retail outlets available with putter fitting systems and equipment. A good putting system is designed with both accuracy and simplicity in mind for both the retailer and consumer. Even though a total fitting usually takes less than fifteen minutes start to finish, it must provide enough information to accurately identify the player's loft, lie, squareness, hand and ball position and tendencies. The cost to be custom fitted ranges from free, if a putter is purchased, to 5+ if performed by a custom putter manufacturer.
Many of these systems have three different length-fitting putters (33", 35", and 37") calibrated to the standard lie angle and loft specifications for the fitter to use as a benchmark during the fitting.
The fitter first determines the proper length by having you assume your normal address position with one of the 3 different length-fitting putters. Golfers with back problems may benefit from the more upright posture a longer putter allows, while golfers who prefer a crouched posture may benefit from a shorter putter. Most putters are available in lengths ranging from 30" to 42" in fractional increments.
Your preferred hand position and the length of the putter determine lie angle. Having the proper lie angle enhances your ability to square up the putter to the target line. During this step, it is important that you use the same putter, gripped at the same length, as was used to originally determine the final length of the putter. While you are in the putter address position, the fitter can read the proper shaft angle from the Putter Fitting system. Most putters with hosels can be adjusted as much as 8° upright or 8° flat. Putters with curved shafts can also be adjusted, but to a lesser extent.
Loft plays an important role in helping to get the ball rolling, and tracking, along the intended line. Most putter manufacturers have a standard loft of 3°, which is optimal for most putting surfaces. However, golfers who play on slower greens may benefit from putters with additional loft, while golfers who play on faster greens may benefit from less loft.
Additionally, your preferences for hand position and type of stroke influence the effective loft at impact. For example, a player with a pronounced forward press may need a putter with more loft since this hand position will reduce the effective loft at impact. The fitter uses their particular fitting system to measure effective loft at address, then observes the golfer's stroke to determine the effective loft at impact. Since the ball comes off the putter face at a higher angle when struck firmly, and a lower angle when struck lightly, there is no ideal loft for every length putt. For most players, playing a putter with standard loft is the best compromise for putts of all lengths.
Grip style is also important since each has its own profile that not only fits differently in your hand, but also can actually encourage a certain type of putting stroke. Based on your preferences, the fitter can make a recommendation that will enhance your putting stroke.
Golfers who prefer a pendulum-type stroke may benefit from a deeper profile, which will reduce wrist action and encourage the golfer to swing more with his or her arms and shoulders. A variety of grips from a standard to a jumbo and everything in between are now available. If the user still cannot get a comfortable grip, the golfer can install a grip upside down for a feel that could solve your problem of wrist breakdown and comfort.
Golfers who prefer a "wristy" stroke usually prefer a smaller grip diameter to encourage the release during the stroke.
Although a putter is usually selected based on aesthetics, putters are also designed to help golfers who prefer certain types of putting strokes. Designs can be categorized based on the balance angle of the face when the club is suspended with the shaft oriented horizontally. This angle is most influenced by the way in which the hosel or shaft is attached to the head of the putter.
The designs are described as ranging from more face- balanced, where the face of the putter points up, to more heel-shafted, where the toe points down.
Players who prefer an inside-to-square stroke, or those who tend to "pull" putts, may benefit from a heel-shafted putter.
Players who prefer a pendulum-type stroke, or those who tend to "push" putts, may benefit from a face-balanced putter.
Top tier retailers and private clubs will normally carry at least two putting fitting systems. The consumer should be advised to try both and see the results from each system. Hopefully the blending of the two results will give the consumer an even more exact fit.

The Four Most Common Allergy Symptoms
Allergy symptoms range from the life threatening to the irritating to the downright bizarre; but they all tend to share one thing in common: people want to get rid of them! Whether you're constantly sneezing, or if your heart sinks at the phrase 'may contain nuts' then the chances are you want to be rid of your allergies. But to get rid of them you first have to know what it is you have. If you think you may have an allergy, look out for these four most common symptoms.
Sneezing
Allergy symptoms are the result of allergens causing reaction within our immune system, which in turn causes the unpleasant side effects of an allergy. A classic case of this is sneezing; the nasal passage becomes irritated by the allergen, and the body responds by trying to expel the foreign particle and clear the irritant. It is an attempt by the immune system to rid the body of a potential threat. The violent expulsion of air caused by the sneeze attempts to eliminate the threat and maintain a clean environment for the body. Of course this can get rather irritating if you are trying to have a conversation, and instead you end up spraying the person in front of you unexpectedly!
Watering Eyes
Watering eyes are a similar reaction to sneezing; again the body is trying to get rid of a potential threat by flushing out the tear ducts. This reaction is designed to swill out the eyes and particularly to wash away pollen which is the biggest culprit in allergic reactions.
Itching or Red Skin
Irritated skin is another common symptom of an allergy. These tend to indicate an allergy to something like a washing powder or perfume; many people find that when they change their washing powder they have an allergic reaction of this sort. This effect is most commonly called 'contact dermatitis', as it occurs when the skin comes into contact with an irritant. However, there are other types of rash such as eczema which are caused by causes other than simple contact. There are also conditions such as hives which come under this heading. Hives are raised lumps on the skin, which are mostly red in color. They can last varying amounts of time from a few minutes to a few days.
Headaches
Headaches are a common allergy symptom. The presence of a headache in an allergic reaction is quite common, mostly due to pressure which builds up in the sinuses. This is especially true for anyone who gets violent sneezing reactions as part of their allergies. There can also be headaches which are caused by certain foods. Additives such as MSG are incredibly bad for you and your health, and should always be eaten in moderate amounts or not at all if possible. As well as this, having an allergy to a specific type of food which isn't bad for you can cause headaches.
These are a just some of the allergy symptoms you should look out for. And remember - always consult a medical professional to ensure that you aren't missing anything important in your diagnosis!

Weekly House Cleaning Schedules For Kids
This week we implemented a new weekly chores list and allowance for our son. At 12 years old we feel it is time for him to learn the value of money.
The way the new system works is my Son has a few chores he must do every day or week just because he is part of the family, he doesn't get paid for any of this work. He will also have a few chores that he can chose to do and for each one he completes he will earn a commission.
All chores done by Saturday at 5pm will be paid out that week and all chores done after Saturday at 5pm will be paid out the following week. Below is a copy of the chores he can choose to do and the commission he makes for doing each chore.
Must Do Chores
- Bedroom - make bed each morning, take down dishes from his room, put away clothes,
- dust 1x per week, take down dirty clothes 1x per week
- His Bathroom - sweep, mop, counters, sinks, mirror, tub, trash
- Dinner dishes every night
- Take out trash as needed
- Popper scoop Wednesday & Saturday (Weather permitting)
- Clean off dinner table each night.
Commission Chores
- Sweep hardwood floors Body.75
- Mop hardwood floors Body.75
- Vacuum downstairs .25
- Clean the stainless steel in the kitchen Body.25
- Vacuum upstairs .00
- Downstairs bathroom .00
- Dust downstairs .50
- Vacuum stairs Body.50
- Mow lawns .00
- Wash cars .00 each
- Master bathroom .50
By not giving him an allowance for the "Must Do" chores he will be left with little choice but to be inventive and earn some extra money. The goal with this project is for him to understand money is not an unlimited resource and it requires hard work to earn it so you need to be cautious when spending it.
