Flate-plate DHW?

I can find virtually NO info on off the shelf, flat-plate, tankless or buffer tank, DHW in the US. I think they do it in Europe. Is it the economics of delivering the volume of hot water we use in North America (flat plates cost as much as the indirect tanks, not including controls...).

water quality issues
I have found indirects to be more forgiving for poor water quality than tankless or plate heat exchangers.Cost is what you spend , value is what you get.
