Well I finally bought the insulation to insulate my hot water pipes. The one causing the biggest problem is the 40' run to the kitchen sink. Since the basement is pretty cool that line cools noticeably while washing dishes between rinses.

I've taken the temperature while running, after 5 minutes and after 10 before I've done anything, and I will again after install just to see what kind of change I'll achieve.
