Insulating a Gas Water Heater?

Posted on 08 March 2009 under Maintenance & Repairs by admin
Ariana Z asked:


We just moved into our first house and the home inspector said that it was dangerous and unnecessary to wrap a Gas-fueled water heater with insulation. But our water doesn’t get terribly hot. I have the thermostat on the hot water heater set to the hottest it will go too! Please help!

David asked:


Fuel, coolant, antifreeze, oil, and washer fluid. Those are the only things I can think of that go in a car so where does the water go? Thanks.

curious1 asked:


Have added HEAT to see if water in gas. Any other ideas. It also is sluggish going up hills which makes me think it is a fuel problem. I will check the fuel pressure too, so need other ideas. What is this about a shelf or ridge? I saw a blurp about that.
checked the carb any other ideas?

bigscisson asked:


I SUCKED WATER THROUGH MY AIR FILTER, I HAVE REMOVED THE WATER FROM MY CYLINDERS, CHANGED THE OIL, AND HAVE PUT WATER REMOVER FLUID INTO MY FUEL SYSTEM. THE CAR SEEMS TO RUN FINE, BUT THE EXHAUST SOUNDS LIKE THERE IS WATER IN THE MUFFLER AND WHEN THE CAR IS IN IDLE (PARKED OR JUST A STAND STILL) THE CAR VIBRATES. IS THIS JUST WORKING THE WATER OUT OF THE SYSTEM? DO YOU HAVE ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS OF WHAT I SHOULD DO OR SHOULD I JUST TAKE IT TO THE MECHANIC BEFORE SOMETHING EXTREMELY SEVERE HAPPENS? I DO NOT BELIEVE I HAVE DONE ANY DAMAGE TO RODS OR ANYTHING. WATER JUST BRIEFLY WENT OVER MY HOOD AND THEN THE CAR DIED IMMEDIANTLY. HELP!!!!!!

RokinLatino84 asked:


I had a leaking hose next to the engine and i ran it with just water for a week(cause the antifreeze leaked out) till i could fix the hose. now the hose is fixed but the oil is milky and i was thinking of changing the oil but i heard i could also mix in diesel fuel with oil to help get all the water out then replacing the oil again?? what do you think??
