Message: [QUOTE="AZHuskiePop, post: 3976333, member: 1609"] I’m more impressed the OP got 30 years out of his HWH. Did he flush it every year? I’m told expected life is 10 years which is about what I got from my last one. A local plumbing company has a deal where the changes you RO filters , test the water and flush your heater annually for $100. i was hit or on maintenance on my old one that lasted 10 years. I looked into tankless but I could never recoup the cost. It was 2 1/2 times the cost off a tank type with just two people at our age it just wasn’t worth it. Gas and Electric are significantly cheaper in AZ. My worse electric bill July/Aug is cheaper than my average Ct Bill during summer. Gas except for Jan-Feb is $25-30. when it doubles Even on the coldest days the sunshine will keep the house warm with the shutters open it’s called old fashioned solar heating. Also because the houses are so well insulted the temp will only drop a few degrees overnight. [/QUOTE]
