Abstract: Herein described is a compact and self-contained circular water conservation device which can be easily installed in conjunction with existing and non-existing plumbing systems and fixtures having a source of pressurized water, a hot water supply line, a cold water supply line, a hot water heater, and outlet fixtures coupled to the hot and cold water supply lines. The water conservation device includes essentially an elecric water pump for pumping water from the hot water supply line into a solenoid valve. The solenoid valve prevents the mixture of hot and cold water systems. The solenoid valve is coupled to the cold water line directly leading to and coupled to an outlet fixture. A thermostat temperature sensor is provided for detecting the hot water temperature at the inlet port of the pump. The water conservation device, when in operation, creates a closed loop linking the hot water line to the cold water line.
