I have a 23 +yo Briggs 42g unit for my cabin which has been in cont' use since at least since 1992. That date was the last time it was inspected by the previous owner,so it could be older.
Without pics, I will set the scene best i can in case thats useful:The unit is in the bathroom corner against an exterior wall. It is enclosed in a little closet made for it.
This enclosure makes it impossible to get past the front of the unit to try and locate the leak.
The rate of the leak is slow enough that Ive been able to place a bath sized towel next to it that becomes saturated after 12-24 hrs and i just switch em out once a day til can get on it.
The wife says" I cant go without hot water, a shower,wash hair"La Bla Bla,you know what I mean.
So my question:
Is it likely ,from my description, it could be fixable enough to give me some time (a week or two or longer until I can get to it?
What do you think?
