Our water heater is at a rear corner in the kitchen area. Water in the kitchen gets very hot very quickly. Water for the bathroom has to go all the way from that rear corner. It used to not get as hot back there. Since I insulated the lines in the belly and in the basement storage area it now is nearly as hot in the bathroom as in the kitchen. Also, it takes about 20 seconds for the water to turn hot in the bathroom because of the travel time to get there. Insulating the lines made a big difference in the water temperature in the bathroom, especially in cooler weather.
