Closing on a house at the end of the month and the 18 year old hot water heater is getting swapped ASAP. Natural gas btw.
I have 4 kids, 3 of them being girls. My oldest (the boy) is currently 9, and the youngest girl is turning 4 this May….. so over the next ~10 year life this hot water heater is going to be very well used with 4 kids in prime teenage years. Add to that, im building an in-law suite for my parents who will be staying with us during the summer (in FL for winter). So I’m not worried about saving a buck or two since a slight benefit in efficiency will likely pay for itself many times over.
Anyone well versed in hot water heater options? There are now tankless options as well, and my heads starting to spin. Would it be worth doing a combination system? We’ll eventually have 4 full baths, with the upstairs 2 being the primary use, and the first floor & inlaw suite being more intermittent. Maybe do one setup for the current house setup, and add a smaller tankless unit when we build the inlaw suit which will be mostly dormant half of the year?
