What Will Happen If I Forgot To Turn Off The Water Heater?
I just left my home in Michigan for an extended winter vacation (6 months). I left the thermostat on 52 degrees, shut off the water supply in the basement, and drained the faucets. I have a gas water heater. It’s 20+ years old (original). I turned it down to the lowest temperature setting (“warm”). Should I have turned OFF the water heater? I’m not even sure there’s an on/off switch. Could something bad happen if I don’t? Should I find a friend to go in and turn off the water heater? If so, how to do it? At the circuit breaker box in the basement? What about the water heater’s pilot light? And what if the water heater can’t be drained? Also, should I have unplugged the washer and dryer? I think I have a gas dryer. Help!

Sediments In Water Heater Making Popcorn Sounds When Heating. How Long Should Unit Last?
Our water heater is over 10 years old and plumber told me last year it wouldn”t last much longer. Now it is making popcorn sounds when heating. There are no leaks. It looks like it’s time to replace. I wanted to know if we have to do something in the next few days, or do we have a few weeks or months to select a replacement before it fails completely.
Draining the heater is not an option because the valve is broken and it would cost hundreds of dollars to replace it.

Why Does Our Water Heater Keep Going Out?
Ok, first, like two months ago I was getting out of the shower and the “hot” wouldn’t turn off. My bf had to go turn our water off completely. Well, we got that fixed a wk or so later with the help of a friend who builds houses. Now, our pilot light keeps going out on the water heater and we hardly have any hot water after we light it AGAIN and it goes off a few hrs later b/c the pilot light has gone out. Anyone know why.
