Question
Energy Factor
That seems like a fairly bad energy factor? Are there more efficient units? What are the ratings for similar tanks?

Hi Plumbbum,
The more efficient units would be tankless and to be able to check the other tank types I would need to narrow down the choices by knowing the size, length of warranty, and type (i.e. natural gas, electric) that you are looking for. I hope this helps.
