The way they do tankless here is theres the main unit, then a small unit at point of use.

This eliminates the need to run water for a long time to heat it up, and no need for a hot water loop.

The downsides are the amount of current required, and at some flow rates temp can fluctuate. I'd definately go with thermostatic showers.

The gas ones are very nice, but to retrofit one requires a bigger hole in the wall because the pipe is intake and exhaust(coaxial)

Ya always run a recirc , its stupid to pay for water while waiting for water
 
Thanks gonna shoot from the hip i guess when we get there. We don't need a lot of hot water at once there is three of use but we all shower at different times of the day so were about the same as you 3 hot showers and some dishes.. It is cooler down here where it is but pretty warm I don't think the tank kicks on a lot.. We are on natural gas not sure if that makes a difference

Looking at them quick at lowes were talking around 500$ for a 40 gallon tank and 1100$ for 6.6gpm tankless :shrug::thanks::d5::biggrin:
I pretty much don't go outside of navian anymore , too many times going back for stupid error codes and shipping back to the manufacturer , rheem is probably second but has seen a downturn in quality, in my opinion anyway
 
Imma just risk it i can't sit here. The line of people getting pushed in front of me just keeps getting longer. Usually they have a side room open where they treat less severe stuff but its closed so its 1 by 1. Time to smooooooke!!!!View attachment 1624132
Do you think this is maybe why you never get to the bottom of this... cause you always leave before they see you.. maybe they see that you come in alot and kinda push you to the back cause its never serious enough for you to stay.. to them you are more worried about smoking and leaving then you are fixing it.. just my $0.02.. you do you pinky I'm not hating, just talking how I'd talk to my friends. All love big dawg.

Doing more research as we talk but not sure if I’ll go tankless they only have one available today and the only brand they carry is A.O. Smith.. Seems there is a little more work going that way definitely more money.. I didn’t realize they need a different special vent and typically go out the side of house which mine doesn’t it currently goes into the chimney.. Plus it looks like you need special valves too for the tankless it’s all adding up I think a tank style is going to be way cheaper and easier :shrug:
