I'm raising my prices. 50 gallon atmospheric vent gas Bradford White I am at $1,250 without permits. In my area permits run from $9-$90 so I don't include them in price. Tankless my price is the same as yours $3,000 and up. Power Vent 50 gallon is $2,000 and up. Had to edit tankless price. Sorry for confusion.

AO Smith is just about equal to Bradford White. Full Disclosure I have AO Smith in my house, but recommend Bradford White. My AO Smith Power Vent has done some funky things over the years. When it goes I will replace with tankless. Tankless isn't that much more than Power Vent. It sounds like you are a candidate for one. Tankless does not mean water will be hot faster at your showerhead.

$1,500 for standard vent 50 gas? Including cost of permits?

13 years leaking from the bottom it's toast. The others are correct. It is a water heater common abbreviation w/h. No such thing as hwh what you have probably seen is hwb. Tankless water heater options if you have gas Noritz is the original. Navien usually doesn't require you to upgrade gas piping. AO Smith & Bradford White (best traditional water heaters) make tankless now as well. Avoid Rheem or anything in the box stores IMO. I'm also not a fan of Rennai. How many bathrooms in the house? Is there a Soaking or Jetted Tub?

Because they denied it once already and nothing changed between the denials? I assume this horse is officially dead? Maybe now we can expend funds on a lawsuit that actually has a shot at being heard by SCOTUS and being decided in our favor. I will admit I found this suit interesting at first but it seems to me Mr Purpura is a serial frivolous litigant. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

Looks legal to me Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

That is good to know they are legal to possess. Now if I can just convince sellers to ship them. I've tried buying .30-06 tracer and incendiary rounds more than once and seller wouldn't ship. I just started to assume it was illegal period. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

If you have NJ FPID long gun does not have to be cased, just unloaded. It can be sitting on the front seat next to you and you could drive around all day like that. Not saying I would want to test it, but there have been times I had an unloaded uncased rifle laying across the back seat of my full size SUV. Unless there was a change in the law some time in the last 2 years that I missed I believe this still applies.

Little bit of an over kill. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

Even if their coffee was good who the hell wants to pay $3.50 for a regular coffee that is $2 or less everywhere else. What I really wish is Coffee Beanery and Tea Leaf started expanding into Central NJ. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

I will agree about not drinking tap water in NJ except for Atlantic City. Monroe Twp in Middlesex County I wouldn't shower with. Never seen water eat Chrome off a Moen faucet in under a year. 10 years is a long time for a water heater to last in Monroe. Crooked town gets their water from 6 wells dug years ago that don't go to the aquafier. Everyone else gets their water from aquafier or reservoir. Water Company in Monroe was setup as another Pucchi Boat Fund. Imagine running Monroe water through Pex and all the nasty plastic chemicals that it will eat away at and put on or in your body? There is no reason to not use copper. If properly installed and good copper pipe is used it will last over 100 years. Use Imported M Copper, and one get's what they deserve. You get what you pay for.

You can try and snake it to break it up. Pour different solutions down it. Use a blow bag. Best solution use Electric (preferably proper hot box). If below slab it shouldn't be frozen too deep. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

Any monkey can run it is right. Running it correctly is another story. When large percents of homes with Pex have cancer remember I said it sucks. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

Family comes first. I promised my kids sledding. So sledding we were doing. I've never broken a promise to them and never will. The frozen lines weren't going anywhere. I got a guy working on one, the other two I'm on my way to now. For the record Thompson Park in Jamesburg is better than Monmouth Battlefield State Park in Manalapan for sledding. Just wish Thompson Park still had the rope pulley to bring you back up the hill.

Pex sucks. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

I know the feeling. I'm heading out to 3 calls that just came in. Silly me I thought I would be able to relax today. Customers will have to wait though because I'm going sledding first. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

Yeah it sucks. Cold got me today too. Dead battery. Left keys in ignition. Grabbed jump pack. Shut door. Connected to battery. Somehow power door locks locked. Realized spare keys were in my office. Not fun bending metal hanger in negative temps. Luckily it only took 20 minutes. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

Not worth messing around. Just keep an eye and ear out for water in case copper broke. It probably didn't. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

Commie states can't do anything criminally to dealers or sellers in free states. They can try and sue them. NJ did just that to a distributor a couple years ago. NJ lost but it cost distributor over $100k in legal fees Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

I automatically assume copper. You are correct plastic pipe wouldn't work. In all honesty in our area I rarely encounter Pex. We have one retirement community that is CPVC. This cold is unprecedented. The wind last night was causing frozen pipes that never froze before. The other problem with that method is if the piping isn't bonded and grounded you can burn the house down. A plumber in PA burnt a new house to the ground 2 years ago using a newer welder. Some of the old welders are as good as a hot box. His old welder broke and he bought a new one. He quickly found out it wasn't rated to thaw pipes. Luckily no one was injured.

Forgot the bucket? Line to toilet only being frozen is not unusual. I can tell you a way to unfreeze it with something you may have but it isn't safe. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk
