What if you had hot water in portable containers that you could plug into
during the deco?

Maybe rig a couple of tubes over your drysuits, that you could plug like old
style fire extinguisher canisters into that would run the hot water over
critical re warming points< im thinking armpits and crotch> and get a brief
period of heating? Your support divers could maybe even shuttle them to the
push guys, like deco gas.   You would probably need to pressurize the hot
water in the storage cylinder on site, I have no idea what pressure you might
need. Seems like the logistics might be worth the benefit, tho. Have I missed
a basic physics issue here?

Heat the water at the surface and avoid the hassle of the piping? 

just another wacky idea,
