Hot and Cold Water

By Ksenya  

Evolution has given camels long eyelashes and padded feet to cope with this harsh desert. Us humans are very poorly adapted to this environment and even after we made it into something we can live in (towns with houses, roads, malls etc), the nature still show us every now and then who has the upper hand! Like this story with hot and cold water.

Water taps

Water taps

During the summer temperatures in UAE reach the high 40’s or sometimes even 50′C. As the cold water tanks are placed on the building or villa’s roofs, they get baked whole day leaving the water coming out of cold water tap piping hot. The man wouldn’t be the man if he/she couldn’t find a way around it – switch off the water heater so we get cold water from the hot tap! Voila! Problem solved – red tap means cold water and blue tap means hot water – at least during summer!

Much smaller price to pay for adaptation compared to getting padded feet!
