I like that! Lol I worry if they get that old. They are a time bomb ready to explode water all over and a mess. It will happen at the most inconvenient time of course. Lol
You did good for it to last that long. Awesome!

She put on a lot of extra weight on her bottom end. Took 3 people to haul her out of the house! :eek The amount of calcium and iron that builds up in an old water heater is pretty amazing. Keith

Had to think about it, My Sears 8 year was installed in '83, that's 36 yrs ago! Yowzer. I drain mine now and again to clear the sludge when I think of it.
