can I use it for a tankless water heater that is Natural gas

Use Maxitrol Pressure Regulator for Natural Gas, 3/4" FPT Gas Pipe In/out,1/2" PSI 3" -6 " WC. 52-1011 for natural gas. The orifice size is different for the two fuels.

Not likely. Your hot water heater needs more energy than this panel can produce unless it is strictly for operating a solinoid/thermostat from another energy scource to your heater.

Stephanie, it might also be productive to search amazon for "tankless gas hot water heaters" depending on the application

No you need a special type of heat element for that this one you ask about is for the type that hold water to heat. You can find out what you need for the tankless water heater by entering the model of your tankless water heater.

It is not intended to work with natural gas. You will need to adapt the line and regulator to work with natural gas. I would have that professionally done and make sure that the burner is capable of handling the fuel.

Check your local codes. If you can use PVC for a regular water heater you can use it for a tank less system.

I don't believe so. It would probably be easier seeing if some retailer will simply swap it out for you. The natural gas units are usually about $20 more expensive than the propane units.

The flame is open to the atmosphere even though it is inside the metal housing and it could build up carbon monoxide. If installed where the previously existing gas water heater was, and the exhaust pipe is vented to the outside, it should be ok ... but check with your local authorities to be sure. I doubt this one will work on a gravity feed system. It takes pressure for the ignitor to light the burner, and even off of the well pump where I live I sometimes have to run the kicker or accessory pump to boost the pressure enough to keep the burners lit. I know that some appliances can be changed from natural gas to propane & vice-versa by changing the delivery ports and the regulators, but I don't think the company makes a crossover kit for this unit. There are On Demand Water Heaters on the market that are already natural gas however. Just my opinion ... I think by the time you buy and install everything you would need to make this unit work for you, it would be easier and probably less costly to buy one that is natural gas, will run on a gravity feed system and can be mounted where you need it to be mounted. PS: They do make the On Demands in electric models as well. Those may be installed indoors since there is no flame.

Sure, but you'll be operating it at capacity and that might lower the life expectancy of the heater. I used two to reduce the load on just one big one and if one does go out, the other can carry the load until I get a new one. My tank is a marine tank, it might not be as big a deal for fresh water. Hope that helped.

Yes you do need electricity the unit has many sensors and a fan that needs electricity it runs on standard household power 110volts. I replaced my old water heater that was a natural gas unit and already had a gas line that I used it is a 3/4" service and seems to work well

Good question, I don't see why not, it's just a filter. The water where I live apparently has lime or calcium which made a cylinder in two previous tankless water heaters crack. If you have stuff like that in your water, I'd say try it. Part of the name says 'scale inhibition'. Have used these filters with my new heater for a good couple of years with no problems with the heater. Stick-on gauge shows when it's time to renew. Get a plumber to install the initial T-pipes (get the whole thing the first time, then just replacement filters), then changing is easy. Twice a year maintenance, worth it.

You will have to hire a licensed plumber(?) to run a line from the nearest existing natural gas line. It will not be an inexpensive project.

Cannot be used with a tankless water heater because the pump flow rate is too low.

Depends on the heater but why? A tankless water heater only heats on demand so you don't waste eergy heating water that is not being used right away. You can possibly hook it up if you have an overflow output on the unit but you can really screw it up if you do the install wrong.

I don't see why not. this filters the tap water so there is no build up on the on demand water heater.

I do not think this works with tank-less heaters. You can confirm this on Grundfos website

Hi, unfortunately probably not. Your existing water heater likely uses PVC venting and this tankless will melt it during exhaust. If you have a relatively short, straight length then it won't be too expensive to vent. But you NEED stainless steel venting rated for this. While i'm at it, you may not have the right LP line either. check your line, if it's less than 3/4" you will need to replace it. I had 1/2" LP line and PVC venting. I ended up going cheap 50 gal electric. Was way to expensive to replace everything for me
