Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are disclosed for implementing a water saving mechanism. In one aspect, a reservoir is provided to collect cold water while hot water is being heated. Once a desired temperature is reached, a valve is actuated to allow water to bypass the reservoir and be dispensed through a shower head. The reservoir can be used to dispense the cold water at a later time.

Claim (Index 1):
A system comprising:\n a plumbing fixture; a valve that is configured to be coupled to the plumbing fixture, the valve having at least one input to receive water into the valve and two outputs that allow water to selectively flow from the valve; a temperature sensor, the temperature sensor being configured to sense a temperature of water flowing through the valve; and a reservoir that is configured to be coupled to the valve, the reservoir being configured to receive water from the valve, wherein the valve is configured to selectably switch flow to the plumbing fixture or to the reservoir.
