Do some math first. Even with propane at $2.50 a gallon, you may not save anything by going to electric. It all depends on what you're paying for electricity. Don't pay attention to the separate KWh charge - all that counts is how many KWhs per month you use and what your total montly bill is.
Tankless heater uses the same power to heat water as a tank heater does - except the tank heater uses a little more keeping that water warm when in stand-by. If well insulated, it doesn't use much.
Tankless gives an advantage if you have several areas in the house that need hot water and are distant from your main tank heater. A lot of hot water can be wasted making those long runs.

We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
