[QUOTE="lwalper, post: 994839, member: 23800"] WOW!! That sounds like a terrible lot of watts. On the other hand, it's only on for a few minutes at a time -- the tank heater stays on for hours (granted, at a lower heat input rate). BTU for BTU they're the same except for radiation loss from the tank which makes the tank more expensive to operate over the long haul. [B][I]Insulate[/I][/B] your tank -- it's a cheap investment with a quick payback. [/QUOTE]
