Tankless water heater

Thinking of changing to a furrion tankless water heater. Has anyone done this and if so did you do it yourself or have it done? If done yourself how much of a hassle was it? Would like any and all info that is out there. Especially if it was done on the same type of unit I have. Thank you in advance.

We had a tankless water heater in our Cougar 23. HATED it! Every time you turned water
off and back on you got a blast of cold water until flow energized heater. We paid to have tankless heater removed and a gas/electric heater installed.

JMHO, if the current W/H is functioning I would leave it alone.

About the only advantage to a tankless is the “unlimited” supply of hot water. With that comes the issue of enough water, propane, waste tank storage. To each their own, that’s what’s nice about this country.
