Hello everyone. It is 12:55 in the afternoon here. We just finished our lunch and it is time to wash the dishes. But unfortunately when I open the faucet, the water that came out was very hot to my liking. I have to wait for a minute or two to let the water run so the water temperature will cool down. Ohlala. It is hot. How are you all? Did you have your lunch or dinner?

The water in the pipes can become very hot in summer. We have a solar hot water system which is quite efficient unless the weather is very cloudy.

Hi Rakski! You might want to install a water tank before your faucet and make sure it's got a roof.. ;) works for us...

We have one but we do not use it. The pressure of the water is good even without it.

@Dextoi oh yes, that I have to do. To replace water in them. We dont use it anymore because the water pressure is very high here. Our tank with pressure system has been built a couple of years ago when the serviced water is upgrading their pipelines

@rakski you should try using it then.. :) also, you need to replace the water in it every time to prevent unnecessary build up of algae and mosquitoes...

It looks like we live in one place only. That is how the water coming out from the faucet also feels like. Like from the thermos.

Talking about water and faucet, the groove of knob for the shower in one of our bathrooms connecting to the water line broke off this morning as my wife was about to take a shower, so I went to the hardware store to buy a new knob with the groove and replace the broken one myself. It's a hot, hot day but when we went to a nearby town to buy lanzones there, it was raining hard there. When we came back to the city, it was still blazing and I'm sure some of those who saw our car must be wondering why it was so wet that it seemed it just got out from the carwash shop :)
