The water heater - part 1

So,  as you know from reading my blog, we (Yacha and I) moved into our new house about 2 months ago.  B”H, there haven’t been any big surprises that we were not aware of.  Until last night…

Last night Yacha calls me to the basement saying there is a flood.  A small one albeit, but a flood (40 gallons).  Once i figured out how to turn off the intake to the hot water tank i started swimming.  Once I got the required amount of exercise I started mopping. And mopping. And mopping. And mopping. (get the point?)

Now I am home from work (realize, I am still working, b/c i don’t know how to take a sick day) and waiting for PSE&G to tell me what I already know, that the tank is dead.  What is more fun is the paying about $800 to get a new tank.

How will this play out?  Stay tuned for our next installment.

 

as always,

mo-b
