General CommentsStrongly recommend a (re)circulation pump be installed on the water heater. Hot water takes an excessive amounts of time to get to the sinks. Even though the water will eventually hit the proper range, it is still a violation if the water takes an unreasonable amount of time to get hot or the hot water runs out before the task is finished. Note: Brainstorm a way to increase amount of area in food prep area in infant rooms. Food and bottles/bottle warmer should not be in splash zone of hand sinks.
