On a side note, I have no idea what a tankless water heater costs, figure $200 or more for the connection, and if you are not handy the additional cost to flush (clean) the tankless water heater yearly. There was a company advertising on ToTV to replace a conventional water heater for under $900, and there was a 10% discount with the ad. I just did my own, water heater and some plumbing supplies was around $550, took 2 neighbors to help, and about 2 hours to complete the plumbing, so the $800 to $900 is not a bad price.

I have had out tankless gas water heater for several years now and I have never had to "flush" it. And there is nothing in the "Use and Care" Manual even suggesting it. Since no water is stored in it there is nothing to flush.
