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 ! <F body content - I take a shower before going to the race track with my Firebird :lol > |

Wow, good read. My only experience with a tankless is a gas-fired unit we had in our 'shack' in Cayos Cochinos, Honduras. It hung in the bathroom just outside the shower. I think it fed our room and the one next door. It seemed to cycle on and off. When it was on, the water was scalding hot, when off, it would cool down significantly. And it would cycle faster when the neighbors were using their shower.
I am going to look at one when it gets time to put plumbing into our shop, so this is a good read. Perhaps a small, well-insulated regular water heater would still be a solution. |
