I am replacing my existing natural gas water heater. Also, I will be relocating the new unit. The new location requires the water heater to be vented horizontally out the foundation. The unit will be placed adjacent to the foundation wall. They are no windows near by. Venting in this location should not be a problem.
I would like to replace the existing unit with a more effeicient unit, i.e. one with out constantly burning pilot. I don't want a tankless.
Does any manufacturer make such a unit?
What is this feature called?
I assume these units cost more money. Do units without a constantly burning pilot really save that much money, i.e. are they worth the extra dollars?
Thanks in advance for any help.
