Does the hot water heater control the heat in the house also?

Never light a gas appliance without taking a deep breath and holding it first. If the appliance flashes/explodes on you or in your face, the flames will not be able to go in your lungs. This is due to your involuntary bodily function of flintching and sucking air in your lungs when you do. Very important with all GAS/LPG appliances, especially OLDER ones. Been there done that, be careful!

Why would I listen to this guy with the Temperature and Relief at and angle like vhinz72 said,and most local codes say it must terminate 6 inches from the floor or piped outside.You may want to do Take2 on this vid..

[vhinz72]

Nice video! But i would like to suggest to put a strap on your water heater & move away your pressure relief line away from your gas valve just for safety.

Is it not Illegal to "Home maintain" your GAS boiler????

I hope that igniter lasts longer than the one on my grill, and my friend's grill, and every other grill I have ever seen. I think I'll stick with my 30 yr. old water heater. I don't have a little inspection window, I have about a 12 x 12 opening through which not only can I inspect for a pilot light, but I can also walk in and re-light the burner myself.

That was fuckin useless............that's not trouble shooting, That's like saying OH is your tv not working? "well i'll tell you how to fix it, What i'm going to ask you to do is....... go ahead and plug that sucker into the wall, Now try it, that should solve most of youe problems". shoot yourself

[whirlybird1999]

I would have to agree with you.
