Gas tankless vs tank water heaters

[Michael Ndjondo makadi]

Hello community,

I have been debating whether switching to gas water heater makes sense over swapping the old tank WH with a new one?  Tankless WH cost has dropped significantly, they tend to last longer and are less prone to leaks but the initial switch might require upgrading the gas line with potential higher installation price tag. Those are for small units less than 960 sq ft. Any feedback will greatly be appreciated.
