Maybe not.

We have a leak in the pipe leading to the water heater. Not a small leak, an “I can hear the water running behind the wall” leak, a “water pressure in the rest of the house is next to nothing” leak.

I am not a plumber, but I have lived long enough and in enough different places that I am pretty comfortable performing most household repairs. The question is going to be access. If I can get to it without too much trouble a quick trip to Lowes for a few bucks worth of parts should have water flowing again. I already know it’s behind a wall, but it is in a place where enlarging the hole where the pipe comes through will not be a problem. It’s how far behind that wall that could cause the problem.

I wonder what Samuel (Joe the Plumber) Wurzelbacher is up to this morning?

Think good thoughts kiddies. I’m going in.
UPDATE: We have hot water!! And in time to watch the NASCAR race, too.
