Gas water heater, tank vs tankless
Can I get some opinions on which way to go here? Home is 3 1/2 baths, 4
occupants (so max of two showers running @ once) tank water heater would need to be power vented, so 50gal is in the $900 range, tankless could be moved to where water main enteres the house, so direct vent would be the way to go which puts it just a little more ($1k to $1,200). What size gas line do the extra btu's of a tankless model require? the line from outside is about 60', mostly straight. Information, experience, (especially with specific brands with the tankless) positives and negatives are all welcome. I know I'm going with gas, but I'm just not sure which type of water heater to get. tia, jc |
