It looks like I may be in need of a hwh. I need some prices and options, anyone here in this field before I look outside?

If your handy with your hands you will be able to do it your self. Buy a bunch of Coper OD (Out side diameter) fittings and some spare copper tubing and a torch and flux and go at it.

There is IN and OUT

Just line it up with the new one

:)

Most supply houses sell to the public, or Home Depot has them ( I think )

I've never done one but I can visually see doing it

LOL

I bought my own from home depot and installed it myself. It was as advertised above...pretty easy. I say buy the flex tubing though...it'll make your life a hell of alot easier.

The hardest part is the gas line, if it's gas. We just reused the old chimney attacthment.

Electric ones are a breeze.

Thanks for the tips, if I had to replace it myself then I would but intially we thought the insurance would pay for it. It was actually an easy fix and it bought us probably another 6 months out it until we actually have money for a new one.
