Can Anyone Recommend A Tankless Water Heater That Does Not Require Electricity? We Use Propane Too.?

Our 17 year old water heater broke. We really want to get a tankless now to replace it. We can’t easily run power out to where our water heater is now so we need a new one that does not need power. The Tankless needs to run on propane and be able to be outside in a small shed on the back of our house. We only need one to run 1 shower at a time since we are a small family. Any suggestions? Do you use one and are they are they worth the money?

    Every maker has indoor and outside tank-less heaters.
    Look on eBay and craigslist for deals.

    No too sure where you are, but here’s a link that may give you more info on the LPG powered tank-less heaters. http://www.dumbshoppers.com/tankless-wat…

    Something like a Rinnai is only the size of a small suitcase. They are white and can be partly built into the wall. BUT: They are best used indoors, mounted on an outside wall (for ventilation). They do need electricity though, for the controls. All these heaters need at least 120v power.
    Talk to a local HVAC contractor about your problem.
    The thing is though, all these tankless units are fairly costly. But they are almost 100% efficient. And they don’t care about the amount of hot water you use.
