Another manufactuer you may want to take a look at is Bradford White. These
are sold through a plumber or wholesale only, though I know of one hardware
store that sells them. I have one, liked the idea of factory installed die
electic unions so you don't pay an additional $5-$7 a piece additional for
them. Also have the brass drain instead of the plastic so many of them
have, plus the T&P relief valve already installed. If concerned about
energy efficiency check out the Deluxe or Optimizer High Efficiency.
