Every fucking time I think I'm finally saving money and I'm getting somewhere financially something comes up. Oh I can't just replace the heating element? I have to get a completely new hot water heater? $600 is a cheap replacement and I do the install myself? FUCK

Is it leaking? If not put a new element in it with a healthy dose of pipe dope and send it

Yeah, it's leaking if you look close you can see little water drops on the ground wire and on the thermostat. I also noticed the insulation was damp.

No you don't roll the dice with a leaking water heater. That's how you end up with a flooded floor.
