Anyway I reckon it is time to get a new one, can anyone recommend a
good water heater, wall mounted, providing hot water on demand for 1
bath, 3 sinks and a washing machine.

do you mind the delay bettween opening valve and getting hot water?
tankless must be sized to use and incoming water temperature.
in areas that get cold in winter incoiming water temperature dives,
causing troubles.
you could get a regular tank unit for perhaps 400 bucks.
tankless will be at least several times that, and you must get one
that has local service, new tankless are high tech and require
knowledgable techs. just like high efficency furnaces new tankless are
more complex and more likely to break
Hallerb, He said he has a tankless so quit trying to put them down, as
I am happy with my Bosch tanlkess also, I have no more time delay than
at another location where I have a tank, they turn on when water flows
and my Bosch 117000 Btu was $460.00 I do fine with a Bosch 117000 btu
for one shower, if you are satisfied with the output then match the
btu. Going up will require gas line size increase. If its for one
person 117000 btu is fine.
