O/T-waterheater

I've been planning on getting one. My house still has an 80-gal propane water heater in it, and for my purposes it's way too much. With my low-flow showerhead, I doubt I use 5 gallons of water to shower. Only thing that takes a lot of hot water is the washing machine, and that only happens once every couple weeks.

For the sake of simplicity, I was planning on one of those electric showerheads (about $80 on fleabay) and reserving the propane for when I'm planning to do laundry. That way I'd only heat a tank of water once in a while.

They are expensive to purchase but super easy to install provided you have an adequate gas supply. I vented mine right through the brick wall.

Every part is replaceable but that isn't a problem since the life expectancy is about forever.

Many people in the U.S. don't like them since it is not what we are used to. But they take up so little space, my gas bill has been reduced and I never, never run out of hot water. The temperature remains constant if you have the variable fire unit.

The only thing that comes close to being this nice is the constant pressure well pump.
