Nice!


The quality of the vent "connection" has me wondering if this was caused by leaking unions rather than the water heater itself. Still...makes for a real easy call, eh?

Nasty!!


I have never seen a water heater in the attic space before, but after thinking about it, it seems like the best possible place to install one. ![icon_rolleyes.gif](upload://iqxt7ABYC2TEBomNkCmZARIrQr6.gif)

Be very careful there, Brad. I would write “recommend evaluation by a licnesed and insured duct tape contractor”.
