Steve,
Thanks for your reply. We are a retired couple that uses hot water
conservatively. We have a 200 amp service and I am a retired electrician.
Our current water heater is propane fired and tankless, but it is at the far
end of the house from the kitchen. So I'm looking for an electric heater to
supply the kitchen sink and dishwasher only. My original post was more to seek
recomendations as to quality of the various brands.
Thanks,
Kevin.
