[QUOTE="Duckslayer100, post: 333454, member: 1485"] Totally depends on what you want to get out of it. If it's just you and the honey with no little ones, tankless is great. It's hot water when you need it. There are capacity issues you need to think of, though. If someone wants to take a shower, boom, hot water. But if you want to take a hot shower, and do dishes using hot water, and try to fill your jacuzzi -- well, it won't keep up. In the same vein, if you have a bigger family and it's common to have a mad dash to the bathrooms in the morning, you could be better off with a high-capacity gas water heater. I prefer power-vents. If gas isn't possible, I believe Marathon has water heaters with capacities of 85- or 100-gallons. They come with lifetime warranties, too. It'll cost more to heat, but it takes a LOT to use up that much hot water. [/QUOTE]
