Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2020
I would rate this a medium-hard project. I never worked with gas lines so I was somewhat concerned. Our house is fourty years old and none of the gas lines have been updated. That might be another project.
I watched two youtube videos and it seemed not so difficult. One video was an actual person replacing the thermostat and it was nice to see an honest regular guy doing it.
The second was a manufacturer video and the guy used an all new setup and of course he didn't run into any problems.
My water heater is jammed in between a wall and the furnace so there isn't much room to work.
I had no idea it would take over an hour to drain the tank.
Loosening the gas line was tricky. None of my wrenches were doing the trick so a quick trick to Lowes took care of that. I got a medium-sized plumbers wrench. That provided the extra weight and leverage for that stubborn pipe. The tank was almost finished draining when I got back.
I was still a little nervous and I took my time, but one of those pipes got turned a little too much a I smelled gas. It wasn't much, but the smell travelled upstairs fast. A little soapy water sprayed on the joints and I found it. So a very slight turn and it was repaired. I ran upstairs to assure my family all was well. My daughter was afraid the house would blow up.
With all of that out of the way it was time to finish the job.
Taking the old thermostat out was easy after the wires were disconnected.
I couldn't believe how much sediment was packed in that plastic sleeve. That is why we filter the water.
When I put in the new unit it seemed to turn about a half turn too much then stopped. I didn't want to force it so I turned it back where it was level. It still had a little play so I took it back out and put a little extra pipe dope on it, but it back in and it was better. Hooked up the gas pipe, put the wires on and it looked good.
A quick check with the spray bottle and I turned the power on.
All looked good so I turned the water on.
Thermostat ran like it should. And we have hot water.
That was my last major repair hopefully for a while.
