    It's hard to say what you'd actually save on the utilities, but you would save something. You'd also save some space. You'd never run out of hot water. And they last longer than a tank water heater. $900 is the absolute cheapest price for an installed tankless I've ever heard - it's a little less than the cost of a good unit by itself. Note that the better units are from Noritz, Takagi, or Rinnai.

    I would go for an electric shower and a smaller instant electric water heater for the sink. I have looked at the suggestion given at the top of this and while it is very good, i think that you will have major problems powering these.

    Get a Bosch. They are great and so economical to operate. You could get an electric shower heater and a under counter water heater ...one of those with a seperate little faucet for boiling water for the sink.

    call the local plumbing supply store in your area and ask for a "point of use electric tankless water heater" or one that can be used for 1-2 persons.

    the flow rate will be slow, so use an electric shower as well.
