Going to tackle another BIG job. That is correct, putting in a new water heater.
NO TANK style.
If you look you can see a black wire on the left hand side of the picture. Well that is 240 volts (60 amps), it was a dryer hook up.Then on the right hand side is another silver tube, that is 240 volts (60 amps) too for the old water heater. Really need 80 amps to run this new unit. I put in a two /40 amp
circuit breaker.
Okay I was not sure how much electric I would need.
So I tried using the old water heater 240 volts, with the 80 amp circuit breaker in it, Then notice there are two (2) heating elements in the new unit. So I put in three (3) jumper wires to hook up both elements.
Now you can see why i needed to change out the old one.
Okay it worked, but it was taking more time than we thought it would to get hot water.
So I put in another 80 am circuit breaker in n the old dryer line. Ran it over to the new heater. Turned it on . It seams to work a little better.
So now I need to junction box. All set now lets us see what happens.
I know the line coming down it not level. This turned out to be a pain, kept trying to line it it up the correct way. But it is finished and she is okay with that.
It really does safe on space and it works great. It seams to take a little time to get to the faucets but it is hot and clear water coming out now.
Okay so what projects have you been putting off????
Hey folks I understand about doing that, but you have time on your hands now???
This cost $625.00 for all hook up an the unit.
Tomorrow I will show you how the pump house looks now.
Have a wonderful day and make sure you have a nice talk with our loving Lord (Jesus Christ)
