Which is more economical - electric or natural gas water heater?

Which is more economical - electric or natural gas water heater?
I love blanket retarded statements. They amuse me. I researched the Rinnai units to death.
Number one, the life expectancy of a Rinnai considering the water not being to hard is about 20 years +. Number 2 the 2520 conitnum can run up to 2 showers and a third point of use without any problem as long as the incoming water temp is not to low, I know because I have one. Even if it the water temp is low they put out a constant temperature. They do this by reducing the flow. You don't need parts for them because they don't break down often. That said I have 2 parts suppliers near me. Of course it depends on where you live. People that complain about them not putting out enough usually undersized the unit Or had it installed without checking gas pressure and setting it properly. I have 7 people in my house and I have the smaller 5.2 gallons per minute at 60 Degree rise and it has no trouble keeping up. If mineral builds up in them the Rinnai has a lime sensor. It will display an error code and tell you it's time to have it flushed. If you do this it's not a problem. Tank heaters don't give you that warning. They burst and flood your room. Most people I know that bought the proper size unit love them and would never switch back. They take up little space and provide hot water continuously. Like anything else results will vary according to hook up and other factors such as usage. Now how in the hell is a unit according to you only suitable for an apartment when I have one supplying a family of 7? My tank would never do that. You had to shut off the water and wait 25 minutes for recovery. I can now fill the tub in one shot without waiting. The proper size unit will run 3 showers with no problem and that's at 120F with a 70 degree rise. Even at an 80 degree rise the Rinnia 2532 can deliver 6 gallons a minute. That's enough for almost 4 showers you fool. Please do your research before you make blanket statments. Now because I do my research and am unbiased I will tell anyone that they are not nessacarly an alternative to replacing a tank heater. The moral once again is do your homework to make sure it's for you. There is no magic involved or deception on Rinnai's part. They provide flow curves and a temperature rise chart. Measure your incoming water temp at it's coldest ,properly size, install it correctly and the unit and it will deliver what it says. If not then you screwed up. Let me add that I am on a well system and the water stays around 50 in winter and a little higher in summer. I can't stress enough about doing your homework and not listening to uninformed people on google. "Jim Baber" wrote in message ... John P..

It is quite a pain to reply to those that use HTML as many facets of newsreaders get messed up. For example, the common practice of indenting previous posters with a '' or some character to help separate out each persons writing often quites and gets muddled when replying to HTML posters. Quite a pain. daestrom |

But the little icon in the upper corner shows an attachment, and that is the HTML version. So to recognize when someone has posted in HTML, I look for the attachement icon (paperclip in OE). I don't open such attachments (I'm paranoid about virii), but it tells me there is some HTML related. Even today, when I go back and highlight Jim's message, and your first reply, they show this 'attachment' icon and that there is some xxx.HTM file attached. daestrom |

Got a few BBS nodes running around...trick is finding them. Most of the old ones are long gone and shut down about the same time that the Fidonet newsletter died. Sites still up, but good luck finding much past 03. CFN, DFN and the others that link to a few nodes are up and running, and most of the old MUSE and MUCKs are still around someplace. WindsMARE was being ran from a buddy of mines server in Cleveland for a long time with permission from MIT. Barry Kort was allowing some of the code to be ran from Devs system...not all, but some, and micro still exists, with Barry running it. NOI and I used to kill hours on microMUSE, but when things got out of hand on there, Barry changed the format and it more or less died. Ill still telnet in from time to time to talk to him, and see whats going on personally in his life, but other than that...nada.

We used to post real frequently from a BBS called "The Whale Zoo", Lynne Edel (Miller) used to run it out of her home in Greensboro. Impressive setup she had at the time..A C-64, 128, and several Amigas running it. HAL, C-net64, Atredes, Skyline..Skyterm..Paragon...all spoken there. Murder Motel...wow...yea..its been a while. That game that EVERYONE knew on a BBS was developed by a guy from the Magic Foam BBS up the road...Steven White IIRC, and another guy Sean something....the three got together and worked on the module loads...most of it thought up at some REALLY wild damn parties she threw.. |

It was a lot more exciting to plug into the VHF radio and run 1200 baud to
digipeaters, and nodes to see how far your could get before the ACK timed out... farthest I ever got was from San Francisco to Ohio :-) "SolarFlare" wrote in message .. .

Good thing you have all that money so you buy Viagra. Send your wife my love. ;o) Just because you run a business don't think you're any smarter than I am. ;o) Your techs are not smarter then me either. I have 50 times the knowledge and skills they do.

Which is more economical - electric or natural gas water heater?
Yes, I am finding this out.
Tell me please. Do they have any pumps inside? Heat exhangers Hot water heating loop? Can the set temperature be controlled from a millivolt or milliamp input...say from a thermostat controller? I take it they do not suffer from thermal shock from incoming chill? Is the vent kit just a dual walled pipe for venting? What is the aprox. delay in hot water need recognition, where the unit "kicks in"? Thanx "Drums" wrote in message ...

My earmuff modem was hooked to a homemade modem circuit
running off a 6800D2 kit with hex keypad into a Heathkit terminal. 2K or ram memory was a pipe dream for me. "Noon-Air" wrote in message . .. "Steve Spence" wrote in message ...

I built my modem with an XR2206/XR2211 chip set on a pair of 2inch sq
experimenter boards....the whole thing cost less than $5 to build... it ran off the internal power of the computer. A couple of years later I upgraded and built a modem with an AMD-7910 chip.

I did figure out that you can call the manufacturer and tell them you want
to experiment with XX chip or chipset, and they will send you some in the mail for free :-) "SolarFlare" wrote in message ... ewwww.
