re: Tankless hot water heaters?

I've been thinking hard about getting one. I have an 80gal hot water tank, but my shower head flows close to 10gpm, so I don't have much time to screw around in the shower. Not willing to give up the shower head either. Back-to-back showers don't happen here.
What labor is involved, and what was the final cost? Is it something that I could install since the labor is so expensive?
You need an on site estimate.
10 gallons a minute is a huge amount of water volume, but keep in mind it's a 10 gallon per minute max for temp treated water so it won't be a 10 gallon hot demand.
It may require 2 tankless seeing as how water volume will be the biggest obstacles to overcome.

We have one, forget the brand though. We have 5 in our household and have not once ever not had hot water. Many times in the morning there will be two showers happening at the same time and have never got the cold water "shock" that I got in previous houses with tanks.
