Wanting to install 2 gas hot water heater should I install them in series or parallel.
Will not have different water zones.

First question... why? Two are less efficient than one larger one.
Is it because you need a huge amount of water? Then look into tankless versions.

That depends upon on what you want. More volume or one heater to preheat the other. What's your pleasure? Back to you, Tom
