[RE-wrenches] tankless hot water and pumping question

[Allan Sindelar]

Todd,
The Shurflo 2088-24 (model 2088-474-144) is a reliable and cheap surface
pump; tolerates sediment, field rebuildable (until the motor brushes
eventually wear out, but in this app that could be many years) and retails
aroud $125. About 2 gpm at pressure. Not freeze-tolerant.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] tankless hot water and pumping question


I am working on a semi-volunteer job for a local non-profit. It is off grid
with water being trucked in and stored in a ground level polyethylene tank.

I need recommendations for:

1) A 24 volt DC pressure pump. This is a single residence so can be
relatively low volume as it will only feed a shower or sink... no
irrigation.

as well as

2) Which tankless (propane) hot water heater would be best? I think there is
one that uses the water flow to spin a tiny generator that ignites the
burner. Being off grid it is important to not have a unit that draws power
24/7.

Thanks,

Todd
