Just sneakin' around....
I went with the hybrid with the consideration of power outages. After one hurricane when I was out for over a week and trying to find showers where I could, I made the choice for hybrid. In heat-pump-only mode, it only draws 600 watts, easily powered from my generator. It does take longer to heat when using that mode vs the coils (4800 watts), but that's not an issue, no high demand.
Looked at gas on-demand, but the hybrid was a one-for-one replacement of the old heater with no changes to anything. No increase in propane tank size, gas lines, no holes and ducting for vents...
