They take longer for the water to heat up. And a heat pump is going to beat it hands down.

- imtringued 6y agoI don't understand. One of them takes hours the other one produces hot water as soon as you open the tap.
- kevstev 6y agoThere is a small "spin up" time to get everything hot and hot water pouring out. This is pretty minimal IMHO, and dwarfed by the amount of time it takes to get cold water flushed out of the pipes. Recirculating systems exist to prevent this problem- for tank/tankless systems- but according to some have drawbacks around increasing wear on your pipes. I have a natural gas tankless system and find this to be a non-issue.
