Tankless Hot Water

I have a 2014 Keystone Sprinter. I am interesting in replacing my hot water heater with a tankless one. Does anyone have recommendations on the best model ones to buy?

First, I suggest that you grant less weight to counsel from those who have not owned and used both tank and tankless. If someone has not used one, then their position is not based upon any empirical understanding.

We have had both types, a 16 gallon DSI gas/electric tank style, and now a Truma Comfort demand water heater.

After experiencing both types we would never choose the limitations imposed by the tank model.

We "coach", we do not "camp". We do not dry camp; we always use full hookups. Because we always have a continuous water supply, we very much enjoy endless hot water. The Truma system is unlike the regular "quality" one sees in much of the average RV industry. This is a high quality, well-engineered device, that works as advertised. Instant and continuous hot water even at flows of less than 1/2gpm. The winterization process takes 10 seconds.

I cannot speak to other brands of demand water heaters, and when we first started researching the genre, we were discouraged by the performance reports regarding the other older brands.

The Truma has been a great improvement in our RVing experience. No more "navy" showers, no more waiting for a tank to reheat. We cannot say good enough about it.
