I live in upstate NY. We have to fill our 500 gallon propane every month and a half in the winter. That's pretty expensive. We're making the change to electric everything (boiler, hot water heater, stove) as we will make our money back in less than 2 years. Where we live and with what we use for gas the electric makes way more sense to me.

Same. Hudson Valley area. We've converted to electric everything. Heat pumps, water heater, stove, etc. We're planning on installing solar panels, and hopefully that will make us more energy efficient and independent.

If you have power outage and have a standby generator. The generator may have a hard time getting the electric hot water heater; water hot. Something to consider.

i have a 24KW electric unit. its spec say 4.68 GPM Flow rate, but my ground water is much warmer then we thought. So we have seen much higher flow rates and still keeping the temp up. its just used more power

I've never seen a gas tankless that costs nearly that much. Mine have cost $1200 for two and $980 for my newest. No way it costs $3k+ to install. Flow rates also vary, since the rating is based on a 40° temp rise. 50° water to 130° lowers the gpm

Society has a large population of people with disposable income today, they are more educated in certain areas and way less in others but they don’t realize this. Since no one wants to work today used car salesman have moved into the plumbing market and educated idiots will pay their prices. There’s 3 rules in plumbing and it doesn’t take a genius to know them.

For outdoor installation, what is the sound each unit produces?

Has anyone done the utility cost analysis of Tankless GAS vs ELECTRIC?

I prefer electric. It's safer, cleaner for the environment, and requires less. Although it is for a 2 story house, there is only 2 - 3 of us, and we aren't excessive with the hot water.

Of course plumbers prefer the gas tankless heater because they make more money with installation and maintenance. 😂

@askvivien Ай бұрын

It is true that gas tankless is better than electric. electric tankless won’t even pass title 24

Can you install electric tankless water heater outdoors?

@jfgoodysr 6 ай бұрын

Keep in mind, most large volume electric tankless needs 2x100a breakers. If you have 100a entrance, you can't use one

Anyone know what error code h103 is on a rheem tankless electric? Brand new no hot water through it and getting that code.

Nothing has been more relied on then a 40 Gallon gas

@jam92es 22 күн бұрын

You failed to mention the safety aspect. I'll take electric over gas any day to avoid gas leaks and fires/explosions.

Direct solar water heater is the best.

Every electric on demand I’ve seen is about 90 amps. So for the average 200 amp service half will be for one appliance, no thx.

Plumbers will always tell you gas tankless water heaters because they make a big profit in gas installation. Electric ⚡️ is the much cheaper and safer.
