Hi, Folks!
I've probably asked this before, but what is the best way to go with hot water heating, side arm or flatplate? My B-I-L says side arm is better and cuts the electric bill some. My dealer says flat plate will preheat the cold wated going in and the water heater will only have to maintain the temperature. Flat plate is less expensive and easier to install compared to a side arm.
Opinions?
Thanks!
