I figured as much. Guy I worked my second job with does handyman work. He told me about the daughter & SIL hot water heaters damn near killed him in cool weather in the same deal.@baboon
**** yeah they're in the attic. Three stories up and 17 years old. Lots of sediment I'm sure.
Air temp in my back yard was 97* today.
As I understand it, the tankless requires considerable electrical additions and modifications. Our local plumbing company said they don't recommend them at all. Worth checking out.lol. If this water heater goes belly up I am going to install a tankless water heater.

I'm sure ARS will hammer me with update costs.
Any idea what the issue could be if we ignore the updated code stuff? My neighbor did his own and I don't see him doing all that.
I'll be calling Ritter around 8A so I don't have too much longer to wait!
My shooting buddy told me to let him know by 3:30 Wed and he'd bring his tools to work(PM shift at Budweiser)and he'd change them out Thursday morning but I don't want to put that kind of a job on him!
