How to Find Your Main Water Shut Off Valve: Quick Tip
I need those knipex cobra pliers
Mine still goes out after replacing thermopile.
Thanks Eddie! Great info. Just subscribed to your channel!
I drained mine and water drained out, but nothing come out. I put a sock over the hose to catch anything and it showed nothing and its been a few years since it was drained?
Well done!
The Rheem user manual does not cover the reset buttons' purpose. Used to create manuals and this lack of detail bugs me to no end. Thanks for you great video as I just got a new unit and had to set the unit up for the first time.
This is not a tip, who doesn't know this. How about when WD40 doesn't work? That's a tip.
Thank you so much, it works for me!
Valve inside? You mean the mastery valve, I only know of the one outside
Yeah I don’t think my bib has its own shutoff. I looked in the crawlspace and couldn’t find nothing
Thank you. I hope mine works with your guidance
Thank You!!
Thank you
nice description mate
It worked!!! Many thanks.!.
I’m excited to try this but I have a question. The breaker box doesn’t have the breakers listed. It’s an old house. I saw on another video that it would be a double breaker with a 30 amp? My question is, how important is it to be sure you’ve turned off the breaker to the water heater to open it up and press the reset button? Second question, should I just turn off the main power switch to the house to be extra safe? Thanks in advance!
That's my question too. I'm thinking of turning off all the power .
@@malcolminthemiddle8777 I ended up turning off all of the power just to be safe and the reset button worked. We have hot water! Good luck.
Also my furniture is to the left side. The flames go out at night. Gets cold in our rooms. I just have to keep putting it back up to 70 degrees manually just to get warm air thru vents again. How come there's no flow of warm air all night?
How hot is A?
Best explanation. Everything becomes clear once I remember how it is used in my home country
It didn't work for me 😩
There are so many words at the bottom of the video I can't see almost 50% of the screen on my phone I can't see what you're doing
Speaking from prior unhappy experiences, I have created clogged disposals by periodically trying to dispose of coffee grounds and bacon fat in the sink. My worst clog happened when I was a 21 year old newlywed and tried to use the disposal to get rid of artichoke leaves. Instant major fail! I learned my lesson. Now nothing larger than specks of food go into my garbage disposal, accompanied by briskly flowing water.
I have this exact hot water heater and along with our hot water now being luke warm at best, we are also getting a continuous beeping sound with the ECC 120 code on the screen. We keep it on efficiency mode 100% of the time. Today we flushed it but now it’s beeping and throwing the code. Any ideas on what to do? Thanks!
I need help. My heater is leaking water and n out giving hot water what do I do?
I am in the midst of dealing with Rheem water heater issues. The burner assembly failed and getting the replacement part is almost impossible. I had to remove it and take it back to Home Depot and I'm currently sitting at home depot for over an hour waiting for my refund. All in all I haven't had hot water for 3 weeks, I've spent an additional $650 is diagnostic cost. I agree with the garbage rating.
Are those tongue and groove pliers? And what brand?
Same issue here, will try! thank you!!!!
Thank you for such a clear explanation! It was the solution I needed to make the water heater work again- you saved us from an expensive service visit! 😊
Steps were skipped, not filmed. Right?
Awesome! I'm going to try this out before purchasing a new water hose and nozzle. In my case, the nozzle is stuck onto the hose. Hopefully I can loosen it today. Thanks so much!
That’s clockwise
Where are you located and what is the typical price for install
This is really great, but you should have warned people to throw the breaker switch so they don't electrocute themselves. I'm 72 years old and this is literally the first time I've ever lived in a place with an electric hot water heater. I had no idea they were such a pain to adjust compared to a gas one, which has a plastic thermostat Dial on the outside
My number one reason is the air intake needs cleaning. Have to do this every couple of years but two years ago I had two cancer surgeries on my right arm and couldn't get down on the floor. Cert Plumber said it couldn't be fixed but would replace it for $2500. I told him to quit cheating old people and to get off my property. I got down and it took forever but I got it cleaned and it is still going well. I HATE CHEATS.
Just recently (DIY)installed a tankless gas water heater and I know for myself that it is saving me money in the long haul, My unit is 4.6 gal per minute and is capable of three things running simultaneous . Do your homework when it comes to selecting the right size for your home. Gas seems more cost effective especially if you have have gas lines and venting in place or you can use electric, 🤑 every ones needs is specific for there home and family. Being a senior living alone wow already see the savings each time the faucet is turned on. 🤪😇
Like the way the plumber explains everything
Thank you
No way that wd-40 worked that quickly.
Great video. I’m having a problem after installing a new rod that when I pull up on the lever, it doesn’t stay up and goes back down, causing the stopper to not stay closed. What’s causing that?
This was so helpful! I noticed my sink draining slower and I'm so grateful for your expertise. I never knew I was capable of fixing these things by myself, but I guess I just needed to see how it's done. Thank you!
Thanks!
So many videos of people putting the t connector to the wall instead of the tank.
I did this and furnace is off, no light
Excellent, very comprehensive!
No I’ll wait until winter
Get an LFP battery…at least 100AH.
I have faced the same issue this afternoon. Your method worked flawlessly. Thanks for taking the time to explain how to solve the problem.
This video saved the day. Much love.
I hat model you have in your hands?
This is just too many steps…and I don’t want to mess with the gas shut off and pilot light.
Thank you! Simple explanation. Worked perfectly.
