On Demand Hot Water System

Has anyone looked at installing or actually installed an on demand hot water system? What can you tell me about them?

They are cool. Not sure, but may be a water pressure issue, amperage would have to be considered, and they are expensive, if I recall.
They work well in homes, I thought about installing one in a customer's home, but I think the expense was a factor in his reconsidering.

Here is a web site that has a lot of information on the tankless water heaters.
http://www.hotwatersource.com/
Have not read most of it yet, but not sure if they make ONE that heats with both propane and electric, but they do make independent Electric units and independent gas units.

We installed a Bosch 2400 propane tankless water heater in our home about three years ago. It is great and our electric bill dropped from 150.00 a month to about 62.00 just by taking the electric 55 gallon water heater. As far as a unit for the TT or FW there are units designed specifically for RV use. They had a long drawn out discussion over on the Escapees forum last month. This unit is RV approved and fits in the space as your standard water heater. The price is 879.00 which is about half the cost of my home unit. Here is the web site for that unit. http://www.precisiontemp.com/pt_rvmd...FRUHWAodhEZwSg

After installing one in my stick house I considered one for the monty and decided not to due to the cost and the installation would probable be project.Hot water hasn't been a issue yet.I use a lot of the cg's showers.If the hot water unit should die then I might take a look at these.The one in the stick house is great,it would be nice if this option was offered from keystone
