We need to replace our gas 75 gal tank water heater soon. We have solar installed on our home with plenty of capacity so electricity is free.
Would love experiences you have had with the following options.
For the electric options how much of a drain has this been on electricity?
1) Electric Tankless - how well does this work servicing a large home and separate garage/office? Does hot water get out to distant parts of the home? We are in California but water from the Sierras can be 40 - 50 degrees in winter.
2) Electric Tank
3) Hybrid (????)
4) Replacing what we have - Gas tank
I have read older threads. My instant thought was to replace what we have but wondering how solar should figure into our selection.
