Signs you may need a new water heater
In this Video JJ with Merit Plumbing show you signs to look for that may indicate you need to replace your water heater.
Signs you may need to replace your water heater:
➡️Age-If your water heater is 10 years or older. Check the rating label sticker on the side of the water heater. Some brands will have the date the hot water heater was made written on the lable. Others will have it as either a letter or number code in the serial number. A quick google search of your manufacturer and serial number date code will pull up a website that will tell you how to read the serial number.
➡️There are rust stains on the exterior of the water heater.
➡️There is corrosion at the plumbing connections on the top or side of the water heater.
➡️You no longer get as much hot water as you used to or any other issue with the way it is heating.
➡️Rust colored water when you run hot water.
➡️Water at the base of the water heater and water in the pan.

    UGH!!! If we knew that it would be this difficult to do this when needed, we wouldn't have gotten this model, Our old one had a place underneath where you just insert an Allen wrench and then turn. This is such a retarded design!!!

  • @SpaceCat223
    @SpaceCat223 26 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Didn’t need this tool at all. I unplugged it to make sure the power was off, put a glove on, stuck my hand down there, rotated it with my fingers, unclogged it and it worked.

    This is exactly what I needed. When I showed the Moen wrench to Lowe's staff, they said they didn't have it in stock. They sold me the Allen wrench tool. Well, now I found it there's not an Allen screw at the bottom! 🤬

    Thank you so very much!! Our Moen Garbage Disposal was less than 2 years old in our vacation home in Florida. The darn thing was jammed, we heard the hum of the motor, hit the reset button, nothing...we saw your video. Ordered the part on Amazon...a day later the tool you showed arrived, we used it, after we unplugged it and removed the rubber gasket at the opening and the disposal is working perfect...thank you. We did have to hit the reset button again after using the tool. You saved us a service call, perhaps even purchasing a new disposal, now we have a tool for the future, if this happens again, and we can share with our neighbors who might have the same type of disposal. This should be given with the purchase of the disposal. Again, thanks!!

    I will not install moen/ waste kind disposals for customers. They are garbage. My main problem with them is that they throw food scraps back out and at you. I tell people this about their new disposal full costco and they don't think it will be an issue. Then 3 months later they want to pull it out and install an insinkerator. Side note. Pay the extra money for the 1/2 or 3/4 hp version. You can thank me later after you ran a whole pineapple through your disposal with no problems.

    Thank you for posting this! I and my husband are very happy because 120 degrees isn't enough to make our showers hot. By the time the water gets to the shower from the water heater, it's several degrees cooler than what the factory setting of 120 is supposed to be. Now the water is perfect at 125 (minus whatever the cooling effect is). 😀

    Very helpful. As to the special tool, I first sprayed interior edge of disposal after removing rubber guard then I used a 3/4in PVC pipe about 15-18" long and put pipe over the nub in the bottom of the disposal and could use the top of pipe as leverage to get it to move. Move it around a couple times to get moving relatively smoothly. Poor Moen design!!
