Cockroaches in electric hot water heater tank?

Water Heaters — Tue, 01 Mar 2011 14:52:25 +0000

Our hot water tank quit working so we really need a new one and don’t really have the money to spend. We got offered a 2 month old water heater for free, but here’s the catch:
The people who just moved out of that house that have the new water heater, had cockroaches pretty bad.
What are the chances that roaches are living in the water heater?
The house has been empty , with no heat at all for a good month -almost two months now. (Temp here is 20-30 degrees at the highest.
We really don’t want roaches in invade our home, but yet a free water heater that would otherwise cost hundreds is there for the taking.
Do you think the roaches could have gotten in it?
Do you think they’d be dead now?
What about the eggs, how long do they live?

I do not want to use old water heater tanks.
Tanks need to be approxiamately standard water heater tank size.
I need a manufacturer of the tanks for electric water heaters. Rheem, GE, etc. say that they cannot sell just the tanks.

I have an old water heater in my house, its about 23 years old believe it or not.

It works fine, but my wife and I are having a baby and I want to replace it with a tankless water heater so when we have more children our tank won’t run out of hot water.

I was quoted about 00-00.

Is it worth it? I don’t know if I should replace it with a regular tank water heater or what!

I need to replace my old 40 gal gas water heater and have a question. The old water flex lines are soldered to the main water lines up above and I just need to know if I can heat the old joints enough to work them loose or will I have to use a hack saw? Can a old soldered joint be re-soldered?

From what I understand a Rinnai tankless water heater needs a stainless steel vent. Why can it not use the vent from my old water heater?

Can anyone recommend a tankless water heater that does not require electricity? We use propane too.?

Our 17 year old water heater broke. We really want to get a tankless now to replace it. We can’t easily run power out to where our water heater is now so we need a new one that does not need power. The Tankless needs to run on propane and be able to be outside in a small shed on the back of our house. We only need one to run 1 shower at a time since we are a small family. Any suggestions? Do you use one and are they are they worth the money?

why should I consider getting a tankless hot water heater?

Our old water heater is about to go out and I’ve heard that tankless water heaters can save me money. Are there any other reasons I should make the switch?

Thanks!
