Have you noticed water heaters don't last as long as they used to......I bit the bullet on the last one and got a AO Smith commercial 80 gallon, I hope this one lasts longer than 5 years.

That was what was in here when we did the construction 5 years ago, it was a GE POS!

before I threw that GE POS away, the year before I had to replace the direct vent blower, which burned out. It was under warranty for the parts but, it started doing the same thing again and this time it was out of warranty, so I paid the 150 for the part delivered and they changed the motor design and wiring, so the unit had to be rewired, which is BS. So I stopped payment on the part and shipped it back. Called a buddy of mine who does commercial jobs and got me a AO Smith commercial 80 gallon.

Steve, that leads to the best question...is that 80 gallon able to keep up with ladies in your house?

i survived our non hurricane.
78 mph winds, and 6.5 inches of rain in 24 hours.
no damage here, but the little old lady next door lost a piece of flashing on her siding, the guy on the corner 2 houses down lost his roof, and one street over lost 3 cars from a giant tree that fell on his caddy and 2 brand new Lexus's.
