tankless water heaters [RE-wrenches]

[Bob Ellison, Alternative Energy Systems]

Up here electric water heaters are common and what you need to compare to,
the gas is propane when they have it at all.
>From the yellow tags it seems the tankless 125X is around 30% more efficient
than the tank type.
Got to run,
Bob

Hi Bob,

Not really a fair comparison as you using electric vs natural gas.

If someone outthere has info on efficiencys then I would love to see it. All
the data I have seen points the other way.  Boilers on the other hand are
getting more effieicent at 95%+, but now you are talking thousands of $$.

There are new models from Japan that are really nice.  They install outside
on
the wall, ( they have freeze protection built in) so take up no inside
space,
need no vent ( direct vent) cost about the same as a Aquastar.
