I think we all need to invest in those little frog things that email you if they detect moisture. Always thought they were dumb but since the nearby mine closed down we've had all kinds of breaks and leaks.... I guess it's the increase in available pressure that nobody at the water company thought to adjust for.

I'm replacing my water heater. This link came in one of the quotes: https://meetflo.com/product/smart-water-shutoff

Silly looking, yes. But that's exactly how I knew my water heater was starting to leak. Thanks LeakFrog! (mine isn't wifi, but it was irritating enough to hear)

pbj:
I knew the hot water heater was leaking because my pilot light kept going out. Now I have 2 dead hot water heaters laying across the rafters because they’re too big to fit through the attic entrance. Also, my hot water heater is in the attic. Some day one of them is all gonna go Donnie Darko on me in bed and you’ll be released from the time loop.

Go throw them water heaters out into the street, and Ollie over them on a skate board...You punks just don't understand chuff.

I know some people turn their water off when going on vacation because of things like this. I have in the past and this may make me do that every time now. I hate turning it back on though. Then you usually have to clean all the aerators (where I live at least).

I think I am going to start doing this. Every time I have had a 'home disaster' its been water related.

--- Quote from: Howard_Casto on August 17, 2020, 06:09:55 pm ---The exact same thing happened to me a couple of weeks ago.... water line in the kitchen just snapped. Now luckily I was home at the time but wtf man? How does a stainless steel line just break like that in the summer time?

Sorry jennifer. I was just posting my chuffiness over the fact my new Star Wars cab was not hurt in the chaos.

Damn pbj. Sounds like you and I share the same ---smurfy--- luck.
