2023 Tellaro 20L - What is this for?
Watched a dozen or more YouTube videos, the few that show the control - nobody points it out or identifies it's use.
Doesn't show up on the 2022's
It definitely has to do with water, as it makes 'water' noise when turned.

Either a temporary shutoff (shower water saver) or a recirculating valve... I'm leaning toward it being a shutoff.
Turn the shower on, then twist the handle and see what happens. Does the shower head slow to a trickle?

Nope...doesn't have any effect on the shower, nor does it effect the rear (near garage area' quick connect sprayer and it does not effect the toilet water.

I see what it does, thanks to, @Chateau_Nomad - I should have paid more attention when I read your post - recirculating valve...
It's the water miser thingy...you turn it on, watch the little blue disk turn grayish-white and you have hot water without wasting any letting the shower run.
It was kinda scary when I turned it and heard water running behind the backsplash (as I found out, back into the holding tank) and saw nothing coming out anywhere in the bath room.
Things like this that are way to clever, confuse my tiny brain.
Ron

Whet does it do when hooked up to city water , does the water go back into the Holding tank ? Then again , might not use it when on city water.

I’d use it even on city water. It is maybe less about saving fresh water that it is about not filling the gray tank. But then, I have a G that can’t gravity drain the tank.

It circulates the water in your hose so you don’t waste on board water or gray water capacity. You will have immediate hot water and no need for wasting water.

Shower and Sink Miser
BASIC OPERATION
The Shower Miser and Sink Miser are devices that help conserve water by returning water that has remained and cooled in the hot water lines, back to the on-board fresh water tank.
Normally, when one turns on a hot water faucet, there is an initial stream of cool water until the hot water begins to flow.
The Shower and Sink Misers allow the user to conserve this cool stream of water for future use. Not only is fresh water conserved by diverting this cooled water back to the fresh water tank, this action also saves water that would unnecessarily go down the drain into the gray water storage tank, thus helping to reduce on-board gray water volume.
The Shower and Sink Miser system consists of a diverter valve, a visual indicator, and behind-the-scene plumbing. Depending on installation, the visual indicator is in the form of a blue button (mushroom-shaped device) or a short, linear shape of blue plastic. This plastic indicator is specially formulated to change color in the presence of hot water, so when the indicator is blue, cold or cool water is present. When the indicator changes to a grayish- white color, hot water is present.
