Does the hot water heater also use the pressure from the main line?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (6 children)

That's how all hot water heaters work. His just uses natural gas instead of electricity.

A gas water heater is still going to have an electric start.

Not if it's a tank system. They can, but they don't have to, since the pilot stays lit all the time. A tankless system has to use some power since it cycles every time you use it.
