Hi,

Finished another episode of Mr. Fix It. This one deals with installing my third tank level switch. It also includes pictures and shows why the switch crapped out. Link is here:

I've also had problems with my stir pump which has finally gotten resolved. Another failed part that couldn't cut the propylene-glycol environment. I'm working on taking photos of the old pump and will chronicle my repair efforts per usual. That to include my usual critical comments and a diatribe on why the pump failed. The good news is the Hydro-Hot is back online now and seems to be delivering pretty good hot water. My last three showers were pretty good and so was Jeannie's single experience. I'd venture a wild ass guess I'm in for $2K on repair parts now (I do the work myself). Add that to the $8K price tag of the unit and you're hitting a whopping $10K. How many Reem hot water heaters could this buy? Enjoy.

Best - Scott
