In Reply to: Tankless waterheater? posted by Jon f mn on February 26, 2018 at 18:28:35:
My house was built in 2007 and I purchased it in 2011. It has a gas fired tankless heater and supplies all the hot water I want.
The tankless water heaters use a LOT of energy when you are heating water, and none when you aren't. I think that a large tankless like mine is rated at nearly 200,000 Btu while a tank type heater may be rated at 30,000 to 40,000. As others have said, they require a minimum flow to operate. The only time this is an issue for me is when I want to run a trickle of warm water while shaving.
I have a water softener, so mineral build up isn't a problem. After living in my house for five years, I flushed the heater with vinegar last year. I found only a few small specks of scale.
My heater is located in the garage. I like having a small wall hung unit rather than a large tank.

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
