Tankless water heater -- a success story!

I installed an electric tankless HWH in a weekend cabin we built. Obviously it is not used as much as in a primary residence, but nonetheless it works well. Only trick during installation was to follow the directions to the letter. Initially I tried taking?a shortcut in the installation, but the unit didn't work right. Once I reread the instructions and followed them explicitly, I didn't have any more problems and it works just as advertised.

There are many good plumbers on the community list of service people. Our top three, at least at last leak over a year ago, are:
Doug Seiler at W.F.Collins, 301-654-9294
James Mabie at American Residential Services (formerly Dorsey Plumbing), 301-927-7100
Jose Bustillos, 301-674-6333

I would highly recommend Tom Lopresti Plumbing (301) 420-6589. The
company has done both large and small jobs for us and has always offered
reasonable prices and performed excellent work.

Tankless Water Heater -- Second Look

I talked to Ralf, who had the disaster story. He believes
it was all a matter of improper installation. I got the impression
that if he could do it again, he would but with a better installer -
one certified by the manufacturer. He said they have been using
these for years in Europe.
