Our hot water heater went out last year, and spewed water everywhere.
The insurance paid for water damage, but we had to buy the heater.

Once we had it installed, (we did it ourselves

), with a neighbors help. Since it is a NATURAL GAS heater, we had to check for leaks after installation.

GET THIS.........

Our neighbor, (who is an eighty-year-old man), climbs in the closet, lights a match and starts waving it around.....

needless to say we hauled ass out the front door!!!!! *LMAO*

Luckily, there was NO leak....otherwise, we could've had a MUCH BIGGER mess.........*LOL*

Moral........do NOT use a match to check for GAS LEAKS...
