Default Interesting article on tankless water heaters...

Now that tankless water heaters will be an option for new homes in Fenney, I thought I would post this short article on them. Understand that this article focuses on GAS water heaters, not electric tankless ones, (which are rare here due to the high amount of electricity they take, usually 3 40 amp breakers).

I have installed these tankless heaters in homes up north, and some folks love them....however, they are not without controversy. Hope you enjoy the article. The article does not go into them, but there are now even other options out there now, like electric hybrid heat pump water heaters, etc.

Bottom line is that there is something to be said for simple and dependable....a basic electric water heater most have in the newer homes, no circuit boards, etc. One cannot wait weeks for a replacement part when you need hot water daily...

Folks have different opinions, just thought some folks may find this interesting, as newer buyers may have this option to consider.

Respectfully, Frank
