You'll find that the on-demand heaters also often require re-piping the
gas since then need a lot NOW, then are off the rest of the time.  Sort
of like using a drag racer to go to the corner store.

In California we're required to use on-demand heaters with any
remodeling and all new construction.  I've seen people getting around
the downsides of these by adding a storage tank and recirculating pump.
