Replacing Hot Water Tank That Could Have KILLED my Customer! CARBON MONOXIDE LEAK THROUGHOUT HOUSE 

I'm a girl who doesn't know a thing about plumbing, but you have an easy way to explain and at least I understand a little bit more of what I have at home.THANK YOU for sharing your knowledge ❤

Keep up the good entertaining work Charlie. All your videos make my day.

Great video Charley! I have owned A L Smith in the past. We had a Navian Tankless installed about 10 years ago and love it! It replaced an electric that came with the house. Where whoever chose to install the water heater there was no place to vent, hence the electric. The Navian was one of few units that could handle the distance needed to vent out the foundation. Cool install, would send a pic if I could

Let the plumber do the plumbing ;)

You used a thread protector instead a coupling right before the main gas valve.

how did you get the fan to turn off with water heater?

I like it....IMO.... Keep up the good work...👍✊

Wow! What a horror story. Thanks for the educational video.

Over on the west coast (earthquake zones) we have to strap our WH to the wall, and have gas flex line running from hard pipe to unit valves. Is that not the case in your area?

Great work!

Hi Charlie, My , natural -drafted, water heater 50 gal (Bradford white ), backdrafts sometime when house goes into negative pressure… The 4 inch liner is properly installed and runs through the brick chimney. For most of the time it operates fine, but in cold season with windows and doors closed it tends to backdraft ones in a while. Especially, when other fans in the house are running… Then I open the closest window from the tank and it changes the flue back into chimney. My hvac recommended installing a 6 inch air intake pipe ( for combustion air)… I’m afraid it would bring all cold air from the outside…? What is your opinion on this? Should I be changing to power vent tank or tankless? Thanks Andrei

I'm not familiar with power vents. How does the power vent allow you to use PVC vs metal for the vent?

Did you install a pan under the heater ?

What is the black thing attached to the vent with the cord ?

Does that power vent stay running the entire time?

What is the danger of operating a water heater that has not been flushed in 2o years ?? The Whirlpool is still working. I only changed its thermocouple once

That thing was dangerous. Oh my.

State brand only for my company, unless customers provided heater

Charley you look like you've lost weight ! Looking good bud ! If your ever in Ontario Canada I could use some pluming /Hunting /boating advice. Give me a call

I am not a plumber but I think your sediment trap is too small? Shouldn't be 3" minimum? Also, having too low of a temperature will allow bacteria to form inside your pipes and cause a 'rotten egg' smell. Finally, nice job but what happens when homes lose power due to storms? These power vented water heaters (if there is no battery backup/generator) are essentially useless?

How does this affect Lebron's legacy?

I don't understand why you would need to change the unit, the old parts could be replaced, But you made a sale.
