Came home to a flooded room and garage and a blown water heater. To top it off I had to take a cold shower.

If you need somewhere to store that orange paper weight, I've got an old Chevy truck that it would look good in.  ;)

I have been trying to unload it for a while. It was seized at one point got it free and ran it. But exhaust gasses are getting into the cooling system somewhere. All I can tell you is its a 402.

I had that happen here a couple years ago. Sucks to be sure!

I came home from the Father's Day deal at Big River (An "Unofficial" "Official must see event") to water running out of my garage into the street...........was NOT a pleasant Sunday evening...........Monday was worse changing the freakin thing. Fortunately, it didn't leak into the basement like my LATEST pool draining endeavor did.......... :banghead:

I like the idea! I did a few of those back east. Problem is the venting of them and sometimes the plumbing, depending. Arizona is pretty strict on those, I can only imagine Cali........I mean, a 10 drop limit like a magazine ban, whatever.

Check codes before you try this depending on where your tank is, but I agree! Money well spent given the right logistics!  :thumbup: :beer:

Eh I don't care for them personally. I'm a plumber by trade and I have not instslled a system yet that I like. To big of a pia to deal with and I don't care for taking a shower and feeling like I'm getting pissed on
