Taco D’MAND® System delivers no-wait hot water to the xture, while the cold water stays in the cold water line.
Hot water without
the waste!
Have hot water at your ngertips
whenever you turn the faucet.
Stop wasting water as you wait
for cold to turn to hot. Stop
burning energy as you wait for
warm to turn warmer. The Taco
D’MAND® System puts an end
to the waste – and the wait –
forever.
How D’MAND®
works…
The D’MAND® System is a small,
silent pump attached to your
hot and cold water lines in the
cabinet under your most remote
kitchen or bath xture. When
D’MAND® System is activated,
the cool water you normally let
run down the drain is circulated
back to the water heater
through the cold water line
At your “demand,” the
pump circulates hot water
from the water heater, and
returns the cooled water
back through the cold
water line. When the hot
water arrives at the faucet,
the patented D’MAND®
System’s heat sensor and
control board shut o the
pump to prevent pumping
excess hot water into the
cold water line.
Activate D’MAND®
only when you need it.
D’MAND® System only runs
when you tell it to, and it’s smart
enough to know when the
water currently in the line is hot
enough. D’MAND® System can
be activated with the push of a
button, or with an optional wireless remote transmitter/receiver.
D’MAND® System
is easy to install.
NO NEW PIPING REQUIRED.
The D’MAND® System not only
saves water and energy, it saves
D’MAND® System.
The best way to save.

The average home may waste
over 40 gallons of water a day
while waiting for hot water. Stop
wasting and start saving with a
Taco e-smart™ D’MAND® System.
in construction costs as well.
