It seems like such a huge amount of water and would require so much energy to get it that high, plus there's the waste to deal with

Back when I lived around the 30th floor, I would turn on the tap and then wait 10 minutes for the hot water to arrive.

The trick was to wait until the people above you were having a shower, then it would already be hot.
