Water Heater
I noticed on Sunday that our water heater has started leaking. As it turns out, they usually don't last much beyond 10 years or so, and we still had the original from 1984. I considered installing a new one myself, then reconsidered, seeing as they are rather unwieldy and over 130lbs. Then I got a ridiculously high quote from Roto Rooter and reconsidered again. Then I discovered I'd require a permit to install it myself and would have to deal with disposal and such and got some better quotes.
So right now Chuck from Osgood/Rescue Rooter/ARS/Service Master (it's a huge monopoly) is installing a new Bradford White.

They truly are a monopoly. We'll be getting a visit from them today to diagnose why our A/C isn't working properly. I think I jinxed myself when we were talking about your water heater and I mentioned that my A/C was getting pretty old. I just hope I don't have to replace the whole thing.
