How does Laing circulation pump work?

How does an under sink hot water recirculating pump work?

This system creates a loop from the water heater to the faucet and back again. The unused hot water is drawn back through this loop by the pump, so when you turn on your hot water faucets, you get hot water quickly. Water is not left in the pipes to get cold and you waste less water because you don’t have to wait.

How does the Laing thermotech work?

A built-in temperature sensor automatically turns the pump ON when the water temperature in the hot water supply line cools down to 85°F (29°C). The pump then moves the cool water in the hot water supply line into the cold water supply line.
