Propane Tankless Water Heater Problems And Reviews
Propane tankless water heater information
Was comparing a propane tankless water heater with an new electric model. Which is more cost effective?
I was thinking of replacing my regular tank water heater electric with a tankless on demand model propane . I thought it would save money on my electric bill but on my electic company's home analyzer calculator, it states that if I replace it with another electric model newer as our tank is really old I will save $60 110 a year but if we replace it with a propane tankless model we would only save $2 4 a year. How can a propane tankless heater use more electric than an electric tank water heater? Anyone have any experience or knowledge of these water heaters? Not sure how to figure out how much electric is because I am billed different amounts for different times of day or something. I have copied and pasted my bill below. Propane is $2.65 a gallon. My neighbor installs propane and was the one who is trying to talk us into it. Said he would do it for free. We just needed to pay for unit. He has one but his house is new and we have old well pump and hard water. We have a water softner but our water pressure isn't the best. 200 KWH at 2.85800000 per KWH 5.72600 KWH at 2.59800000 per KWH 15.59980 KWH at 2.44900000 per KWH 24.00Transmission Charge 1,780 KWH at 0.73000000 per KWH 12.99Transition Charge 200 KWH at 1.21300000 per KWH 2.43600 KWH at 1.07500000 per KWH 6.45980 KWH at 0.99300000 per KWH 9.73Generation Charge Capacity and Energy200 KWH at 5.81900000 per KWH 11.64600 KWH at 5.11400000 per KWH 30.68980 KWH at 4.69200000 per KWH 45.98
Propane tankless water heater?
I'm building a new house and was thinking about putting a tankless propane water heater in the house. My question is, I'm wondering if I can use a 100lb tank to fuel the heater and how long would it last under normal use? Like for a 117,00 btu heater.
