The red line that is teed into the blue line after the check valve should actuallycould be the cold supply to the faucets and notused as a continuation ofrecirculating line to provide almost instant hot water to all the hot supplyfaucets. It should be teed into the blue line between theMake sure that you add a check valve and the cold shut off valvein that line so you do not get reverse water flow when a faucet is turned on. 2) The supply line to the heat pump should come from the bottom of the storage tank so it utilizes the coldest water to be heated, and not come off the hot supply from the storage tank. 3)The hot discharge from the heat pump should go to a separate tap near the middle of the tank if one is available.
