I tried installing an electric one. I had a friend of mine who used to be in the heating business help me. Make sure you know if your electrical system can handle it. Some of those heaters draw a ton of electricity. You might be popping straining your system if you run it and say, a washer, microwave etc.

In the end I went with a 20 gallon electric tank. If I had 200amp I would have gone with the tankless electric.
