How Do Tankless or Instant Hot Water Heaters Fare?

Posted by Robin Choudhury on April 25, 19101 at 20:11:25:
I am remodeling a five-plex of studio apartments and space is at a premium, so would like to use the electric tankless instant hot water heaters in the units. Two parts to my question: #1 Why are all the plumbers afraid of the tankless water heaters? Not one plumber I have asked so far has recommended them. #2 The only ones that seem to be reasonably priced are the ones I have seen offered on eBay auctions --the Termotronic (http://termotronic.com/termoi/index.htm) and the Titan Model N120 (http://www.k-enterprise.com/). I've seen the SETI but it runs over $500. (http://www.tankless-water-heater.com/index.html) Has anyone out there used the less expensive Termotronic or Titan? and if so, how do they perform? Any recommendations?
