IΒ have been told by many a plumber & electrician that the tankless in electric are not great options.
Β
YMMV.

If I'm not mistaken, the new units are of a size that won't easily fit through existing attic access hatches / doors / whatevs.Β Look that over.
& If you have the available folding paper, look into that Rheem I mentioned; see if it's on sale @ yourΒ local Homer Despot as well.Another item, remove the existing plastic drain valve (fancy for "hose bib") & put in this one:

Β
The plastic one can easily get damaged, knocked off, etc.Β Costs less than $ 8.50.Β
Store SKU #1000042101
- Durable material resists rust and corrosion
- Allows draining of water heater for prolonged life span

Get a lawyer consultation.
& Not from someone youΒ see on TeeVee.Β Does the Shag Brain Trust have a connection in Houston? -

If you want to hear something crazy, the first Wimberley football game I went to when I moved here in 1999 was against LT.Β I think they won 21-14.Β I was told that they were one of Wimberley's big rivals.Β LT has come a long ways.Β Β
Yeah, Dripping Springs used to routinely smash them (LT) as well.Β My, times have changed.Β We need some of that NFL caliber DNA to move out here as well.

the fact that we have two hyper-local schools of renown in producing college- and pro-level stars kind of makes me feel like the University of fucking Texas should have a pretty good QB every single fucking year

They actually aren't too terribly difficult to do on your own; it's the electrical part that might scare you the most.
Where in your house is the offending WH located?Β The process really isn't a headache but if you do want a professional then maybe save some time & take the old one out 1st?Β Maybe drain it & save that time?
ΒI just purchased a 50 gallon Rheem unit @ Homer Despot; from $ 619 down to $ 440.Β Has a 12 year limited warranty on tank & parts, + 3 year fullΒ in home labor.Β Given the price drop, I went ahead & sprung for the extended warranty (something I very VERY rarely do).
PS:Β A plumber suggestion is to remove the existing plastic drain valve (like a hose bib) & replace it with a brass one (sold on the same aisle, costs $ 9.00 or less).Β The plastic one can take a single knock by your foot & it's broken off inside the tank exterior. -
<------------- Atorvastatin here.

I have a guy.Β Sending PM.

Also depends on where you live, if you have to get it permitted, like here in Austin. Β Adds cost and time. Β

Met him @ Rodeo Austin & talked to him about being a Judge for the Q cookoff for the following year.Β Gave him my card, but he never followed up.
We will definitely miss you.-

Our Pack usually books the Lex trip for Easter weekend.
Very empty, damn near have the whole boat to yourselves.Β We did the Lex 3x; 1x with the wife & Roxette... my wife bitched about the sleeping accommodations the whole time but overall I didn't find the racks to be too bad.We also did around a 20 minute beach cleanup somewhere between the Aquarium & the Lex so Monster could get one of his Belt Loops (now called "Adventure Loops").Β IΒ assisted, but most of it was to get him moving along & not cut corners.
TheΒ Pack is doing their JSN on 29 Aug., my birthday, & I intend to come out & assist where needed + bring some of Monster's old Cub uniforms to allow kids to try them on for size & ordering. -
Comedy routine I recall (but not the comedian):
"Yeah, I come from a really small town & we were pretty much the poors.Β So small, when it's the new school year @ the end of summer, I'd come in & a kid would say "Hey, I know that shirt.Β Β That was my brother's & mom gave it to Goodwill last week.Β There's the hole where he got caught on the chain link fence." -

2nd for Judo & also if you don't want your kid to actually get hurt, Take my Dough (their sparring has everyone so effing up-armored, you have to shoot them to get through the cladding).
Β
If you can find a good Shotokan or even better yet, a Shorin-Ryu program, consider that a success.Β Judo, OTOH, is good because a quality Dojo will work equally with
Nage-Waza (throwing techniques: hip, foot, hand, sacrificial)
Katame-Waza (grappling techniques)
Atemi-Waza (body striking)
Uke-Waza (blocking & other defensive avoidances or counters)
Ukemi (how to fall... back, side, forward, roll-outs)
For little kids, they will start with Ukemi & a lot of Ashi--Waza (foot techniques) so as to prevent serious harm to kids that don't know how to receive a simple O-Goshi (major hip throw).
A good Judo program has BJJ type stuff in the ground work AND throws.Β IMO, BJJ doesn't do anywhere near enough throws (if @ all).-

Opened, in position... new unit comes with a brass valve ROTB, so no need to add on / swap out from plastic.
