My Hot water heater (normal 6 gal unit) is leaking and must be replaced one way or the other.
Camping World sells a THWH for $222. (Excel Vent-Free Tankless Propane Water Heater, Low Pressure Startup, 1.6GPM). A replacement for the existing 6 gallon HWH is $400. Makes sense to me to install a THWH.....what am I missing?
The question is:
> Is tankless the way to go nowadays (we had one in our house and it worked great)
> Can it be installed in the same slot where the old hot water heater came out of? I assume that is the right place.
> Are there issues I am not aware of for tankless systems on a RV?
> Is the installation of Tankless as simple as it appears? Are there hidden issues I am not aware of?
Thanks in advance for your input. I searched the forum for answers but could not find any of the answers for my questions...
