They don't make them that big but the other big reason I like it is because they are piped together with bypass valves so either one can fail and we still have hot water while waiting on a repair.

I definitely considered it but the house already came with 2 so it was easier to stick with it and reconfigure them to work in parallel with bypass valves. The other reason is I'm trying to get off of gas and the electric ones are energy hogs. My current tanks are now heat pumps.

Ah, I forget that heat pumps are an option. Makes sense
