Today, I came out to my clients home to take a look at a water heater that was no longer producing hot water. Our client wanted to have a new water heater installed, rather than invest money into a 10-year-old water heater. Due to the design of the new water heaters, I had to install a 30 gallon water heater, which just barely fit into the cabinet, both due to width and height. This water heater should service this small apartment well. If for some reason, it does not put out enough hot water to satisfy their needs, I have informed them that a mixing valve can be installed, and the unit can be turned up, which will allow it to produce more hot water while still providing a safe temperature for the family to bathe in. I have left an estimate for installing a mixing valve just in case they want to have more hot water. I removed a pipe that extends the combustion air from the ceiling down to the bottom of the cabinet. This pipe is not needed. There are two 5 inch inlets 6 feet above
