It is not the type of water heater, it is the distance between your bathroom and the water heater. Houses with both tankless and tank water heaters can have a long run to the bathroom, or a short run, depending on the layout. It takes 30 seconds for us to get hot water.

How many houses have whatever type water heater we have and no wonder there is a shortage.
