The GE's sold by HD are made by Rheem. They may be an extra cheap version or not but they will not have the problem that these whirlpools have.
I will likely perform the tcouple test on Monday to see how that works out.Thanks again.
Apparently they feel that your time has no value.
Ah what the heck you have to be there for 8 hours anyway...
hard to believe , but I have had 8 calls for
whirlpool water heaters this week..
all acting up due to the thermal fuse on the side of it.....
all of them are the newer units under 2 years old.
I am wondering if the change of the water temp has
something to do with the high of calls on them this week...
I got one in my shop that I am going to tear apart
to take a better look at next week.....,,.
.I dont get a good feeling about any of this either, its like
every last one of the " new improved ones "
are going to fail soon and all at once.......
that would be very bad for Lowes.....very bad....,
send out a sunami alert......

Yes, a complete burner assembly was in the box. There was no note,etc., to tell one to replace the installed unit with the other one. Maybe I should install the extra one and see what happens but I am tired of messing with the *&^%$ thing. I was told that maybe there was too much air going in and the loud pop was delayed combustion but from what I have read here I don't see how that could be.
This is awkward, but...
