Wednesday morning I went downstairs to do some laundry and found water following a path between the carpets in the back room…
the water was coming from under the hot water tank…
this freaked me out as in 2013 a leaky hot water tank flooded the basement… drywall had to be cut out, huge fans brought in and everything in the basement put into boxes and moved out while the remediation company returned the basement to normal…
two technicians arrived from a neighbourhood company and spent a day and a half in the basement and up a ladder to the top of the chimney…
after numerous issues – the wrong type of tank being delivered, too short a ladder, screws sticking out all the way down the chimney –
finally the new gas water heater is installed and working… throughout the process the technicians continued to find new ways to deal with the problems…
I am pleased with the final result;-)…
