Hoovered up?

Maybe. If done right it can be safe. Do we trust them to get it right when they can’t even figure out how to run their current grid?

Thanks for the clear and straightforward answer. 😊

From what I can tell it’s all done from the crawl and branches off from a central lines to feed the various outlets.

Got it, thanks.

I’m in the Pacific Northwest at about a thousand feet elevation so the ground does freeze here. I have an idea where it comes into the crawl so maybe outside that area?

Mine comes in in our crawl space but I can’t get to where it comes in becasue of a sewer line that runs the width of the crawl and I can’t fit past it.

Maybe? I’d have no idea where to look that I hadn’t already.

Mine was built in the 80s. I spent the morning crawling around my crawl space. There may be one down there but I can’t find it or it’s beind the sewer line I can’t get past, which just means I don’t have one. There is a knob in my garage which I have no idea what it goes it. I have turned it till it won’t turn both ways any nothing has happened that I could find.

Humans over using a natural resource to the point of detriment to the species? Well I never…

This is why I recommend Mint with Cinnamon DE. Same reasons. It’s always interesting to see someone come to a different conclusion with the same reasoning. 🙂

Debian.

Yeah it was unfortunate because of their (basically) no returns policy I didn’t want to roll the dice on a second one.

Armbian was the most promising when I had mine, but still wasn’t ready. I just couldn’t get into manjaro, but every time I loaded a new OS the screen would die, come back, flciker and a “shadow” around the perimeter of the screen.

I remember getting a PineBook Pro when it came out. Seemed like a great machine but the screen failed in less than a week. Thankfully they refunded me but it was disappointing.

Thanks you for the info. I read this all and will be considering it. Oh, and the straps are installed. As for the pan I would have no where to drain it to without adding a pump or a garden hose across the garage, which I’m sure my kids would continually trip over and slowly destroy. I understand the risk at the tank goes but there is a 6-in concrete lip around the entire perimeter of the garage except for the door. Most of the water will go out the door and what doesn’t can be squeegee out.

Again thanks for taking the time for typing all that out. I really do appreciate it.

I can’t physically fit a drain pan and the foam block. It’s in a concrete garage that slopes outward so I’m not too worried about water on the ground. Straps are getting installed later today.

My old water heater never had an expansion tank and my home was built before 1986 so as far as I can tell it’s not needed. The pax is the same diameter as the relief valve and has tested just fine, and also is piped to the outside.

As for the relation between the water heater and the panel I’m not sure what to say as I didn’t build the house. The house passed inspection when I bought it 3 years ago and the old water heater and panel were in the same exact location.

It’s from a garage to an interior wall. I’m not sure if that would qualify as exterior or not.

Leading to an indoor wall from a garage.

Yeah but that was like the coolest mythbusters episode ever /s
