Sucks for 2 showers at the same time.

In brazil they store the water on the roof and drop it into the house so the water is pre warmed. Thus I noticed I saved a ton of $$$ versus the tank one I had. Not so sure what happens if the water is at 55 degrees. You might need a bigger unit.
There is a good guide here, we are one province over from him but it shows the flow rate difference from summer to winter. The flow rate drops by half.
