I find it a waste of money to have water being maintained at temperature in existing 40 gal tank and thought a tankless system in the long run would be more efficient as well have a longer longevity. thoughts appreciated.

. I’m sure it’ll be hooked up in garage & not outside like ours in northern Texas, how stupid was that, Tankless are cheaper to buy the great thing is they never run out of hot water, the bad thing is like ours you can only set it at 120 degrees at the most which for us is plenty hot enough. But me personally won’t buy another home with Tankless Water Heater outside, yea I know this was very stupid, me myself feel like a slave to my Tsnkless Water Heater. We have a new home & I’m a slave to it in winter. So to answer your question put your Tankless inside somewhere. Also they are cheaper to run!
