The Kid's Point of View:
RESPECT is not something that can be mandated; it is not something that can be bought. Respect is something that an individual must earn through his or her own actions. All of the intimidation, legislation, or any other forceful actions that may be utilized, will not result in true respect.
And when those who are honored through "force" turn their backs, they will find daggers in the eyes of even those believed to have been their closest friends.

And when I say all, I mean ALL. LOL....
I purchased countless pieces of Bassett's "Grove Park" collection in 2000, which includes pieces for living, dining, and bedrooms.
I was going to do an Ebay Auction of ALL of it, to include my leather sofa, loveseat, and recliners. Just haven't done that yet...
Not certain just which way to approach this yet...but one thing is certain....I am done collecting any sort of stuff....and would just as soon see my possession reduced down to my shop, and a box full of clothes....

Sometimes the "short" heaters designed for a crawlspace can cost more than their counterpart of greater capacity.
If she is willing to spend the money, then off course one of these would solve her space problem and not have to deal with the heater being under the house.
Just consider the supply lines which bring cold water to the unit. It is extremely important that these are protected from freezing. If she plans to install this unit inside the house along the inside of an exterior wall, she should be okay.
Tell her to contact a company called "Yellow Dot Heating and Air" if she lives anywhere near the triangle. They are well reputed and I have had them do several things to the houses I own.
Also, I would recommend she do some homework on the manufacture of whatever she decides. The internet is a wealth of info regarding peoples actual experiences.

I would suggest the good ole' "Consumer Reports" organization and pay careful attention to warranty and service. As I indicated, many of these units are installed on exterior wall of the house. The supply line that feeds cold water in to the unit is where we faced most of our problems, not with the heater itself.
Consumer reports can provide much better info regarding cost, efficiency and overall customer satisfaction than I can...
They will be expensive, and if the reason for getting one has to do with the length of time it takes for hot water to reach a certain bathroom, then there are cheaper alternatives.
A recirculation pump is the first one that comes to mind.
Many conventional hot water heaters have digital controls and multiple settings. I am uncertain your real interest in these "tankless" systems but regardless, feel free to ask any ???'s
