Do any of them tankless have power vent ? I have 20' of stainless exhaust straight (almost) out the roof .  Or 24 inches of solid concete and stone to drill out the wall . I ain't doing that .

I lived with an older, small Paloma for years, and it was awesome. They were really common in the backcountry neighborhoods in northern CA. Ours was mounted where it was easy to get at, and we only turned it on when we needed the water and then turned it off when done, so we didn't have the pilot light sucking up all the gas.

Wish I had one here...

This Bosch that I installed does'nt have a pilot light. It is an electronic ignition that activates when the water begins flowing.

I know it's been 8 months since I started this post, but, wanted to report my results with my Bosch tankless water heater. We have 4 living in our home. The wife showers twice a day, each of the kids and myself shower once a day on average. 3 loads of wash a week and dishwasher runs once a day. I've been averaging a 100 lb tank every 60 days, about $30.00 month, or $1.00 a day. So far, have not had any issues with the unit. There is a faucet located on the other side of the house that takes about 1 minute for hot water to flow. Over-all I am pleased with it. I did install two who house filters prior to unit. The 1st has a 5 micr. filter, the 2nd has a 1 micron filter. So far, they have'nt had to be changed. The 1 micron will probably get changed this month.

I have a Bosch I bought at a garage sale, in the original sealed box brand new for $500. They were going to use it but couldn't figure out how to vent or where to get vent parts. I will be installing it in our new home that I am just sawing the lumber for.

Wow! They gave on that pretty quick. You got a good deal. The vent kit is sold seperately. Make sure you get the proper length vent pipe. Most kits contain vent for 6" wall. Mine required an 8" . I bored mine through cinder block wall.
