Re: [DIY] Hot water tank

 

Hi, I've been reading this discussion with interest.  I am a senior residing alone and have a 60 gal (I think) electric tank that is coming to the end of its warranty period.  The bottom of the last one suddenly gave out (perfectly dry floor at 8:00 p.m., lots of water by 9:30 p.m.) so I'm thinking of replacing this one before disaster strikes, although the plumber said it was very unusual for one to suddenly give out like that.  I have only electric in my house and have no desire to have gas (my choice).  I asked the plumber what he thought about tankless.  He didn't like them - talked about difficulty of getting replacement parts.  Maybe he was just not comfortable with (or not knowledgeable about) tankless units.  I run the dishwasher maybe once a week and the clothes washer the same.  What do you think would be the best choice for me?  I will switch plumbers in a heartbeat if tankless is recommended.  Thanks.  Joyce
