To expand on Fint's explanation, there are 2 types of recirc. pump systems if you don't have a dedicated rreturn line:
One type is installed on the water heater itself with a valve installed on the fartherest faucet. The other has the pump and integral valve installed at the fartherest faucet and nothing on the h20 heater. Both systems have build in timers for energy savings.
As James, Fint. Targa, etc mentioned, H20 heaters in the attic is not that great an idea to begin with and adding a pump up there made no sense at all to me so I ordered the Laing which is installed at the faucet. UPS delivered today so will install tomorrow and post results after a couple of days of use.
James: a beer (or three) is definitely called for. When I get a bit more settled and organized will PM .
