All, Our Bosch propane tankless heater is beginning to fail and we are
thinking about replacing it with another tankless. It is located in a shed
next to a cabin that is not always used, although for the next several
years we anticipate a regular single occupant. The current model has a
pilot light; obviously we prefer one that is electronically ignited which I
think they all are now. Suggestions, thoughts? I've read a number of
reviews. It would not be too difficult to install a passive solar heated
system in this cabin too, an alternative.
I've used tankless for years now but one aspect of the type I dislike is
the fact a lot of water goes down the drain before the hot water finally
reaches the faucet. In this cabin the shower is within 10 feet, with the
sinks not over 15'-18', but water loss nonetheless is a negative factor.
thanks, Sacie
