Just though I would pass the word around
I own an EcoSmart 27 Kw, and it is the BEST tankless water heater I have ever owned. The cheapest prices I found off of AceHotline(dot)com
Bad job good Housekeeping. This was not informative and was just an ad really.
That was an example of an investment. PPL, all the time want to know when they will make their money back on the unit. They won’t, hence the example I offered. Reduced utility costs will NEVER, EVER come close to a ROI.
Not a very good analogy for the ROI. No one plans on selling the unit down the road. The question was directed at how long will it take to recoup the cost of installation, with reduced utility costs.
I install these units….You don’t buy them for a ROI, they are not an investment purchase. You don’t buy a Prias in hopes to sell it for more than you paid. That installation is ugly and illegal. no clearence to front of unit……get a good plumber people or it will cost you thousands down the road. I’m the guy that fixes other idiots installations!!
I sell these units. Those unit displayed are commercial models. The heaters alone are $2400 a piece retail and require all stainless vent
It was a very nice house. And very green! *cough*mom*cough*
I would imagine with purchase price + installation + any 1 service needed on it, the ROI will take over 10 years to pay off. Correct me if I’m incorrect.
If the replacement is around the same time as the time you need to replace your hot water heater, then the ROI is much better.
I hear it takes years to get a ROI. Can anyone confirm?
ain’t that something
This technology has been in europe for the past 20 years. Way to catch up decades later.
But is it good on energy?
