Jim, I don't know what to tell you. I know it is hard to believe that we lived (5 of us) on a 20 something gallon, 110 volt water heater, but we...
Jim, Interesting. You are probably right about the water heater constantly taking on cold water or leaking or something. It literally would run...
I laugh at this. We lived in 5 different 'apartments' on island on STT. What you all are saying now makes sense. The reason so many electric bills ...
