My dishwasher has a built in heater that boosts water temp up if it is not 120 F was used to "old school" where you ran the tap closest to the dishwasher for a few minutes to "get the water hot" before running the dishwasher.

Today, I actually lowered the water temp to 110 F, but I notice that it does take a while to get water hot in the shower (wasting water).

Such are the trade offs . . . .
