As the title said this is the 3rd tank I have replace in a 10 year spand. Each tanks lasted about 3 to 4 years and ends up leaking. each time I would think they would re design where the failer point is and each time something new would leak. I still like have instant hot water and the faucet is still good, so I keep replacing the tank. customer service always help with the replacement price. maybe this one they got all the bugs out?
