    I have a similar unit made by Joolca. I recommend mounting it inside your building and running the propane line outside. If you leave the unit outside, the coils remain full of water in-between use and will freeze and burst when the temps fall.

      Yea, i drained it as soon as I'm done, and i made a cover for it. Hopefully, it works out this winter. Next summer, i plan on having a solar roof water heater. How is the joolca working out for you?

    Also, make a cover for the unit since you are mounting it outside! 😁👍👍🇺🇸

    Long term look into an "instant on" electric water heater, ... when you get your solar array! Keep the gas heater for power outs! 😁👍👍🇺🇸

      Great point! That's the plan for 2024.

      @@samfish6938 yes but you use most of the hot water at night and the morning, which solar water heaters aren't as good then.

      It's mostly hot all year. I think we hit a high of 115° during the summer. 62 is chilly for me 😆. What's the temperature where you're at?

    I'm pretty garbage at measuring stuff out and being a handyman too, to be honest. Also, we were probably in Iraq at the same time.

      Yea, it's definitely not for everyone. I'll tell you one thing, if summer next year is hot as the summer was this year, I may have to relocate. Everything i planted died, even with shade clothe, mulch, and frequent watering
