Both aosmith and rheem have a gas water heater model that comes with an electronic flue damper and 12 year warranty and brass drain valve.
After gas company rebate, the net price is the same as the cheapest model in the store.
The problem is, I don't have an electrical outlet in the w.h room, and there are no electrical outlets in the adjacent rooms that I could easily tap into.
unless I drill a hole in the wall and just plug in the flue transformer in the bedroom next door, as a hack method.
In case I have to resort to the cheapest heater,
what I really want to know is... is there a significant difference in the tank construction metal/glass of a 6yr vs 12yr heater?
