End of summer with no real trips so we are gonna go up to NC to Deep
Creek near Boone for some whitewater tubing. *Camper is still about
two weeks from completion so will be using the tent (this is tent #4
and is almost worn out).
My wife is taking me to California and I hear the water in Tahoe is
pretty cold. I don't plan on jumping in anyway.
I experienced some cold water this evening.
the water heater in the garage quit last week so until I get a new
heating element, after work showers are a bit nippy.
Both elements went out?

If it is just the top one you can jumper out the top thermostat and
run off the bottom one.

I know, but this is a single element 15 gal. job.

15? *Damn, that's small for a house in your climate. *My office has one
that size. *Does that hold up for two showers? *I have a 40 gal and the
water enters it at over 65º all year.

I have a heated garage, that we could actually live in. concerning
the water heater, mine is a simple 120v, that hides neatly under the
counter in the garage. it's all it's used for , for me to take a
shower and clean cook-out utensils.
