  • Some of the instructions are confusing. Like turning off water faucet before turn water main back on....if the water main is off how the hell is the water heater tank suppose to fill?

  • Common mistake in making these videos?
    You don't heat HOT water!
    You heat cold water, but since "cold water heater" would be redundant, we just call it a water heater.

  • Hey Dave, do I remove the little plastic pieces from inside the inlet and outlets before installing the plumbing?

  • Enough with the Bloomberg ads. That being said, I just used shark bites for my installation. No problem.

  • Sharks bites and discharge tube should be 12” or less from floor... not 6”

  • The first mistake is calling it a "Hot water heater" in the title. Its a water heater, there's no need to heat hot water.
