  1. For people who don’t want to wait for hot water you can install a recycle loop with a small pump that constantly recycles the hot water. I’ve seen it done in allot of larger homes where there’s a long run to the bathroom or kitchen. If you do this insulation on the pipe will save you some cash in the long run. My longest run is to the kitchen, I just accept it’s going to need to run a little, I did insulate the pipe and that seemed to help a little, my plumbing is in the basement where it’s always at least 60 so if you’re in a crawl space you might see more of a difference. 
    About 8 years ago we got natural gas “had propane before” my furnace and hot water heater were old and for what it was going to cost me to switch them both over to natural gas I decided to just replace them . I got bids from about 5 different companies and every one of them didn’t recommend installing a tankless water heater for allot of the reasons stated above.
