We've had a gas-fired Rinnai R75LS for eight years and love it.  Units are available with different capacities based on anticipated need.  Though ours is a lower capacity unit (just two of us most of the time), we needed a larger capacity gas meter to supply it.  That was provided free of charge by the gas company.  Result?  Endless hot water, but only when you need or demand it.  Tankless heaters aren't necessarily maintenance free.  We have ours serviced every other year.  Service includes checking adjustments and circulating several gallons of vinegar through it to dissolve any accumulated scale.

We bought it because the relief valve stuck on our old tank-type and the damn thing blew up in the wee hours one morning.  Flooded the garage and ran out onto the driveway where it froze into a sheet of ice.  No more of that for me.  Besides, what's the point of constantly maintaining 40 gallons of water at a specified temperature 24 hours a day?
