Corner Irish Bar
The old one was builder's grade, so it was probably the cheapest they could get away with. I should have drained it yearly, so I will take the blame for that. Supposedly a water heater will last 2-4 years past the tank warranty if you drain it yearly. Tank warranties and price are based on how thick the tank metal is. A tankless system would cost $3500-5000 total, so I passed on that. Unlimited hot water but you have to wait longer for the hot water to get to the shower.
I’m not spending 5k on a water heater
@scratchYou ever have your water tested?
No. I do know we have a lot of manganese in the local water supply. I drink water ran through my fridge filter.
