Thank you, Matt. I can also plug the pump into one of my timers to turn it on and off at various times. On weekends, it would not be that hard to run downstairs while the tea is steeping and just turn the thing on. Nothing in my house is smart, beginning with the owner.

Temperature of "cold" water coming out of tap was 101.4F. Took leaving water run for >8mins to get cold water (83F), and even longer still to reach the nice frigid water coming from outside building.
This does vary by time of day. During peak usage times (mornings through early evening) *frigid* cold water arrives almost at once after opening tap.

I’ve got a closed loop hot water system and is 200 foot run, with a new Grundfos Alpha pump. The old Grundfos had a remote, but inevitably I forgot to shut it off. The Alpha has the same technology as the Nest products in that it eventually figures out your usage patterns and adapts. I LOVE this product. I use the normal/hi-temp scrub, and sand rinse cycle on the dishwasher, and the pump comes really close to anticipating fill times. It took 2 weeks of “learning “but it works. Glad I have a smart home, cuz I’m not smart. I travel a fair bit and it’s nice to look inside/outside the house, control the lights, temperature etc from my tablet.
