It's amazing how much we take something like hot water for granted until we don't have it.

And HW heater parts take so effing long to arrive and you can't buy them from hardware stores. I have to explain to tenants all the time that, no, I can't get it any faster, no I am not installing a new water heater because the factory is taking a while to ship the part and no they don't get "free rent" for the days they were without hot water. Maybe a small credit, but you still had use of the entire house!!!
Totally understood. Just made a chart for hot bath times tonight in the house. the kids were able to go to a friends house each night. But the hubby is not so very mobile and I have been bathing him by boiling water. I ran to my bro's house a few times. Harder stuff was keeping things clean, washing dishes, laundry that requires a good hot washing on and on. I finally had pots sitting in the oven keeping warm for whatever popped up :)

gotta love when the last page of a survey asks for your job title and industry from a drop down box when you're a full time student......

Your ingenuity impresses me! I will suggest the pots of water in the oven for the future for tenants.

Oh wait, maybe I won't. One will leave the oven on all night long and it'll be a gas oven and cause a carbon monoxide issue then they'll sue me and I'll lose my license and everything I own despite having a forkton of insurance.

Shoot. That would have been a great idea for some tenants!

Living without hot water is hard. If one of our tenants has to go longer than 3 days we almost always issue some sort of credit. Most owners are ok with us doing that, but not completely free rent.
