I... Genuinely only realizing this now
For real. Everytime I get in the shower I end up having to point the showerhead away and cower from the cold water and I could have just turned it on first?

I'm so thrown off by our current shower which legit heats up in 2 seconds. I was so used to waiting like a minute for it to warm up, I built my rituals around that. But this one... it's just hot, like right away. Bizarre
The distance from the heater to the shower is usually the biggest factor.
Same here! Moved to an appartement so everything is closer and now I don't need to turn on the shower 5 business days before I want to shower
I'm in a SFH but all the bathrooms are very proximal to the heater so it slaps
Some apartments with central hot water have a recirculation pump, so the water is almost always hot. My building has one. The water is always hot, but for some fucking reason the hot water is like right next to the cold water, but the cold water doesn't have a pump, so the cold water pipes will get hot from the flowing hot water. Then when I turn on my shower the cold water will be just as hot as the hot water... for like a minute, making the entire thing fucking pointless because you still have to wait to get in. But I can burn myself on demand so I've got that going for me.
I have my own water heater. Its an older appartment 😅 but that does sound quite inconvenient wow
I think some of the really fancy installs have a secondary tankless water heater for the shower....
I think I saw that somewhere.
