In 2020 I got rid of two 50gal gas water heaters and replaced with a navien tankless (recirc on timer). I also replaced two burnham cast iron furnaces with a lochinvar wall mount. I also installed a Lopi Liberty that I winter burn 24x7. Excel Gas and electric bill is now higher than 2020.
I'm not sure what point you're trying to get across. I guarantee that one tankless would use less energy than two 50-gallon water heaters but not sure what all the other things you mention have to do with this discussion. As far as your gas and electric bills - mine are higher than in 2020 as well and I have not changed a single appliance during that time - the reason? My gas and electric rates have gone up because of all the "Green energy" regulations implemented under Biden and my loony lefty state government.
Wonder what the greenies will make of this, these have been touted for their efficiency.
Not only efficient but long lasting as well. I've had mine for 20+ years and not a single issue the entire time and very little maintenance required.

Exactly. Rates are higher and the offset I did in 2020 is a wash. Echo the loony’s in CO!
You in Michigan?
Is the bill higher because of energy cost increase or because or energy consumption increase?
