Yeah, it's a little off the usual topic content but, My Hot water heater is starting to go. I would prefer to change it before it quits completely.

I've done some research on tankless water heaters but, I would like to here feedback on those of you that have them. I live in the phoenix area so, ground water rarely gets below 45-50 degrees and I have a 200amp service panel. I only have electric

Thanks !

I live in Buffalo and use NG for heating so I have a different application. I love having a tankless hot water heater. I don't save any money with a family of 4 using it but no one ever gets a cold shower. With only one user the savings would be noticed but at what cost? Run the numbers and see what it will cost to run hot water for 30 minutes a day with the tankless versus keeping 40 gallons hot for 24 hours and that should make the answer clear. -FRRAX content- I will be helping rushman install a tankless NG water heater soon.
