One of the issues you may run into is having to install a much higher KW (if electric) or BTU (if NG) Unit which will drive up the price. From your sig. it says that you live in Winterpig, so the temperature of the ground water has to be taken into account since it will have to overcome that difference (especially in winter) and still maintain adequate flow. What is nice about the tank water heaters is that you really dont have to worry about that factor since it has time to recuperate in-between. Do you have a blanket installed on your current heater? It can make a world of difference in your energy costs.
