Tankless water heater advice

[slumberhouse]

Need your advice on what brand should i get. I need a tankless heater to warm about 800 gallons of my reptile enclosures to 82F. I used to have a freebie tankless unit from a friend but it's already worn out. I'm just really checking out options. any advice will be helpful!

I don't have specific brand recommendations without knowing more details about your setup (like flow rate and existing plumbing), but I suggest looking at brands known for their reliability like Rheem, and Noritz. they often have models which I think is suitable for what you need.

For 800 gallons and needing to hit 82F, I don't think a standard residential tankless unit would do the cut.
Try checking models from Rinnai, Navien, and Stiebel but probably go with their commercial or larger residential lines.

Great to see this! A friend of mine has a small aquatic rescue operation, and he faced the same problem last winter. He ended up switching to a Rinnai commercial-grade heater after his old home unit just couldn't handle the volume. It really improved the temp stability. If you're dealing with that much water, I'd strongly recommend going for commercial models
