    Series or parallel? What are your needs. In series one will feed into the other while in parallel you will have 2 separate feeding 1 line. What are you trying to achieve?

    Instead of two water heaters in series why not just one80 gallon water heater? Shorten the time it takes to get hot water why not simply install a recirculating systems? Sound like a plan? Let me know what you think. Tom
