Selecting a Replacement Water Heater

[Oren]

The strap looks like this. Each end of the strap is anchored in the wall stud. See instructions in the kit. A ten minute job or less.

Nearest wall is three feet away from the water heater.

Okay. Soon the law/code will require you to move the wall, so you can match them up.

On purpose I don't follow some left coast rules....

Heater hasn't fell over when I touched it, yet. Nor, has it broke a flex line.

Freedom means "personal responsibility". If someone gets hurt, the hack will be looking for someone else to blame.

Yes, agreed. It's nice when they come back and let us know how things worked out, or not!
