When tankless salesmen feel the need to trot out BS like that, it

You're the one who thought that standard water heaters run
continuously and that tankless are 80% more efficient than tanks!
SNORT.


Maybe you should listen to someone besides your tankless salesman:

But if you want spend dollars to chase pennies, more power to ya.


I think Bill was actually agreeing with that article, but that
article pretty much sells me on the tanks. ?Anyone here debunk that
article at all?


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


whats to debunk the savings will take longer than the life of the
heater......


please explain how this is a advantage?


I don't believe it is an advantage. Are you asking for me to explain? I
need not---I agree with the article.

You may have misread both Bill and I.


He seems to be in one of 'those' moods.

Whatever It Is, I'm Against It

I don't know what they have to say,
It makes no difference anyway --
Whatever it is, I'm against it!
No matter what it is or who commenced it,
I'm against it.

Your proposition may be good
But let's have one thing understood --
Whatever it is, I'm against it!
And even when you've changed it or condensed it,
I'm against it.

I'm opposed to it --
On general principles I'm opposed to it!

Chorus: He's opposed to it!
In fact, in word, in deed,
He's opposed to it!

For months before my son was born,
I used to yell from night till morn,
Whatever it is, I'm against it!
And I've kept yelling since I first commenced it,
I'm against it!

By Harry Ruby (music) and Bert Kalmar (lyrics)
Performed by Groucho Marx in "Horse Feathers" (1932)
