Reimbursed for what? The lawsuit was for a non-monetary gain. It was a lawsuit because the T/couple kept breaking. It kept breaking because the chamber kept overheating. It kept overheating because civilians would not keep the Flame-trap vent cleaned off. Twice a year is all that should be needed to clean the vent. Civilians were too lazy to do that.
un like a Rheem, Bradford White, Smith or State........
who stand behind their product
Are you trying to rationalize why a poor design that causes excess maint. and unreliable function of a product is the fault of the customer and not the manufacturer?
Then please tell me WHY are other makers going to start producing their Flame-trap vents on the bottom???? Water heaters, like my Mitsubishi Evolution VIII (if you have to ask what that is, then you need to do your homework), requires maintenance. It takes me less than 2 minutes to clean the flame trap vent on a whirlpool..... so during a 12-month time frame, I will spend less than 5 minutes a year cleaning underneath my system. But I guess you truly are the smart one.
You are a born idiot.... Smith or State that stand behind the warranty?? No duh.... because Whirlpool belongs to AO-Smith and State is also a manufacture of them...
Good job there you...you may now wear your Dunce cap and sit in the corner.
do you know whats the best place to get a manifold door cover? to replace the one that came on it? Ive had the plumbers here 2X already and now I gotta get that part to (hopefully) fix the cesspool my wife bought when I was in Iraq. We've had it a little over a year. The problem is the pilot light won't stay lit. The last time when the plumbers were here it stayed lit for 45 min, then poof out. i tried several times to light it to no avail.
thanks/later/Bruce
Call the number on your water heater...
Or, better yet just tear it out and bring it back to Lowes tell them you don't give a rats azz about what they say you are here to return the defective junk they sold you...
If they don't take it back, rent their truck put it in the back and bring it in to them at a high rate of speed....
Cut your losses go get a Bradford White...
This is awkward, but...
