The problem with hot water is not the distribution or heating per se,
but the hot water tank.  If you flush yours as often as most
people (never?) there is probably quite a build up of rust, etc.
in the bottom of the tank.  May not effect the taste, but who
knows about the cumulative effects of trace metals?
