[QUOTE="lunkerslayer, post: 333525, member: 217"] Guywhofishes you are on to something with this idea, we can see you have put a lot of thought into this. Tankless heaters have thier draw backs number one is reliability or longevity compared to a traditional water heater. Juanr is correct by just a little bit becuase the system isn't built yet where we are charged for exactly how much water we are used each month. Every place that I have rented where I pay my own water bill I was alloted a 1000 gallons of water in that 30 day cycle regardless if I only used a hundred gallons I still had to pay for the whole 1000. In a way that is how our government runs for everything, people who budget for a fiscal years cost proposes so much money for a year and if they don't use all that money they get less for the next fiscal years budget. Another system built on waste of natural resources of water is farmers in Arizona who use metered water for irrigation purposes, regardless of how much water they use even if they are getting natural rainfall they have to use what water is alloted or the can actually be penalized by having less water for the next years crops. There are so many more examples of resources and money wasted for the fear of not knowing what the future brings. So back to guyswhoshares idea, this idea is a great idea for future homeowners who are looking to build and use a traditional water heater. You could set up a whole system for this design it from the beginning with hot water lines that are insulated though out the house cutting back heat loss. It could be set up using a wifi system where it's regulated though a computer system that controls all the areas of the house. Well done right now yes juanr and the rest of us are considered greener but if our utilities are ever run more efficiently with a on demand approach you would win by mile. Anyone remember the infrastructure bill Biden administration proposed? Well one of those was data infrastructure where more high speed data lines of cable will be put in for that very reason besides internet access but also to connect everyone so utilities can be read automatically saving money i guess. Great ideas guywhofishes you have always like to share with us your ideas and I am one of those who appreciate it. [/QUOTE]
