Comments on: Tankless Hot Water in the U.S.: Yea or Nay? http://blog.kitchens.com/2008/02/27/tankless-hot-water-in-the-us-yea-or-nay/ Mon, 7 Jul 2008 10:26:01 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.2 by: Matt http://blog.kitchens.com/2008/02/27/tankless-hot-water-in-the-us-yea-or-nay/#comment-11874 Mon, 09 Jun 2008 23:21:26 +0000 http://blog.kitchens.com/2008/02/27/tankless-hot-water-in-the-us-yea-or-nay/#comment-11874 One important fact that all consumers should be aware of is that with a tankless heater your hot water will take longer to get to you. We had purchased the Takagi Mobious after being told it would deliver instantaneous hot water for our family. The manufacturer has a different definition of "instantaneous" from the rest of us.- It starts to heat the water instantaneously, but takes a looonnng time to push the cold water out of the pipes before getting to your sink,shower,etc. It is necessary to get an additional recirculation pump to get the hot water to you in a reasonable time. The upside is there is an endless supply of hot water. One important fact that all consumers should be aware of is that with a tankless heater your hot water will take longer to get to you.

The same poster, Tony, has entered basically the same thing on all the websites i've visited about 'instant hot water' types of equipment. I suspect he either works for the company or has some other financial interest in this product.
