Anybody have any experience with tankless water heaters? We need a new water heater anyway, and as long as we get it installed by the end of the year we can get the tax credit for it. Looking into the specifications, it has to have a .82 efficiency and I cannot find a regular-ass tank water heater with anything close to that efficiency (closer to .50-.60). Basically they're forcing you into the tankless heaters to get the credit. So $850 heater, $250 credit, lasts 20 years. Seems better than a 12 year tank heater for $400-500, no credit, and higher energy costs.
The only thing is the installation (which the costs are part of the credit, cha-ching). Direct vent outside is needed. I dunno. A little overwhelmed here.
Alright, go back to talking about computer coding and food now.
