[QUOTE="Equalbracket, post: 15993626, member: 65904"] It may be out of code in your city but under the UPC/IPC it's within code to have a water heater under a stairway, it's electric. That's really poor plumbing to have a 8 foot run of pex exposed in an uninsulated garage, i'd move it to where the water lines go up the wall, get it up off the ground and on a platform. It's hard to tell how the red and blue pex lines tie in to the heater, doesn't look like copper/stainless flex lines, looks like someone went to home depot bought some uponor pipe and sharkbite fittings and became a plumber. Whatever you do be aware that repair plumbing is basically um like a scam, the prices they charge are 3x what they should be and you're paying for "X y Z are a possiblity" I have friends all the time call me, tell me hey i had blahblah come out and they quoted me $2500..what should I do? Tell em to fk off i'll be over tomorrow, and it's literally a 1 hour job or less. [/QUOTE]
