    Lowes phucked us over on the water heater! Went to the store to talk to the store manager, to schedule a pick up and delivery of the defective unit and replacement. She informed us that the old unit would have to be returned before a credit could be issued for a replacement. Which meant that we wouldn't be able to get a replacement deilvered until Thursday of next week!

    So guess how I'm spending my Saturday afternoon and evening? Yep! Taking out a defective wather heater and fixxing to replace it again!

    Lowes Customer Service sucks!

    As long as you got hose water you’ll be ok. Perfect time to be without a water heater. Swim trunks and a bar of soap.

    That's why I don't buy from Lowes. Had issues with them years ago and never went back.

    I buy from Home Depot and have never had any issues returning items with them

    I prefer Home Depot as well, but the closest one is over in Tyler, so that's about 75 miles away for us.

    Replacement is installed and seems to be working. Already making warm water. I turned the thermostats up to 140 degrees instead of the safety lawyer setting of 120 degrees!

    Just keep an eye on it. At least until you go to bed.

    Almost thought we were going to need bail money for the wife! She got pretty hot and was cussing a blue streak as we left Lowes to go get a truck to haul the defective one back and get a replacement installed tonight.

    There's a guy I follow on TikTok (Twin Home Experts) that's touched on these box store water heaters a little bit. He's always talking about the brands like Rheem which you would expect to be good, not being good because you're getting a cheaply made model from Lowes/Home Depot. He recommends going with Bradford Wright water heaters. They may be worth looking into. If you're on TikTok, he's definitely a good follow to learn things for general home maintenance/repair.

    I don't do TikTok, and I do all my own home repairs ib my own dime. The water heater that was installed when the house was built, was an A O Smith, and we got eight years out of it. when it started leaking, I replaced it with a 50 gallon A O Smith water heater and got almost ten years out of it. It has been replaced with another 40 gallon A O Smith water heater. With my maintanance plan, I should not have to replace again until 2032!.
