Water Heater Grump
 

Went for a shower during halftime last night. Looking forward to it after a sticky three shirt day. No hot water.... Down to the shop. Water and steam coming out of the upper overflow with the 18" copper pipe. I now have water covering the floor ALL OVER THE SHOP!..... what a nightmare that causes me.
Shut it down, turned off the water supply, made the call. It had "overheated"???? I had the water temp too high for too long??? The unit was 2 years old in Feb. Service this morning. It better not need replacement. Not an expense I can deal with right now.

So after I get the tileman going at the jobsite, I am morphing into a stcky,stinky, unshaven, MF'ing collection agent. Gotta collect on some overdue/bad accounts.

But, 2 more days to Cutty :jump:

Ouch that hurts. :( Mine is going to go any day, i just feel it.

Starting to look into the instant tankless systems.
Alot more inital out lay but with the price of natural gas going up 20%, they are a good long term investment.
