Had to have our water heater replaced yesterday. I'm capable of replacing a water heater, but with the old one leaking, light snow falling, and county business to attend to, I hadn't much choice but to simply call a local plumber.
The new one, as was the old , is propane fired. The new one (Rheem) has a remote sparker to light the pilot, with the button for the sparker on the control valve. I was impressed.

Swearing seemed to help a lot.
That feature with the sparker has probably been around for years, I just didn't have occasion to meet up with it before.

If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
