@Ika Sargeant Thank you for the warm welcome!

Ice damming is real and creates water intrusions, when the gutters start backing up with snow, the warm roof melts the snow, but it refreezes and expands getting under shingles, and then into roofs.

Hey @Paul Allen, thank you for the warm invite!

The only question I have for you is,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,How HOT is your DESIRE, warm, cold or BURNING HOT!!!!!

LINKS: https://news.fiu.edu/2022/the-...https://www.bankrate.com/insur...This plus the hurricanes/rising sea levels/global warming (or at least an increase in hurricanes in the future, if you don't believe in global warming), the fact that FL real estate prices dropped 30-40% last recession, and the fact that FL real estate has become frothy from pandemic influx of buyers... feels like the perfect storm for a lot of upcoming pain points for FL real estate investors. 

Unless you are a hard core believer in Global Warming (an obivous hoax, no scientific consensus) like SOME people in Tennessee do, I would just put in the standard tank kind.In your own home, you would need to do a cost benefit analysis of the savings in energy bill and replacement cost over the longer lasting and efficeint tank model.

No gas heat keeping the structure warm in the winter means the possibility of pipes freezing and breaking, costing sometimes HUGE amounts of money to fix.They are living beyond their means and need a cheaper rental unit.Good Luck!
