The point I'd like to make is that there are MANY household items
that folks purchase that cost as much or more than tankless water
heaters and those items are not scrutinized in the way of efficiency
or payback. So, how does one justify paying $2,000 for a huge diagonal
LCD TV? Has anyone ever seen a big yellow EnergyGuide sticker on an
item like that?


Easy. Joe Sixpack is in the shower for ten minutes on Saturday night, but
he is in front of the tube 6 to 8 hours a night.
