one aspect to look at with tankless... is the minumum volume of water flow needed for it to activate itself.
My first tankless (the one on the pic I posted) was a Bosch that required 0.8 gal-per-minute flow to turn on. After a lightning strike that took out a lot of electronics in the house (including the Bosch tankless)... I replaced it with a Rinnai model that has a 0.6 gal-per-minute minimum flow requirement. Much better. |

I have water heaters over thirty years old. I am surprised most don't ever change them. 20 bucks to save thousands.

Mine is 15 year sold and every now and then I used to hear it popping. Then it stopped. Water is still plenty hot.

So you don't have to wait for the shower on the far side of the house to heat up.

But lately it makes a loud popping sound once in a while, just randomly as far as I can tell and not often. Water is still hot. Anybody know what the popping sound might be? And don't tell me it's the anal rod. I just went to the proctologist a month ago, everything was fine. |

doods... like i know what recirculating hot water is.
I've only seen that in commercial buildings though; mainly because they also heated with hot water.. Was curious if there was a ubique application for home use I didn't know about. I mean, it's gotta cost a little bit extra I imagine... |
