re: Water heater recommendations

Posted by 2BRKnot on 11/3/25 at 10:44 am to
"jet engine" as in noise-wise? My tank water heater is in the attic above a bedroom. The heater needs to be replaced and I'm thinking about replacing it with a tankless heater. Can I expect a natural gas tankless water heater to be so loud as to be heard in the bedroom?

Absolutely.

Yeah, that's what I learned. The air purifier I bought doesn't have an ionizer.

Thanks for the idea, but I can't run an exhaust pipe into the attic or through the roof because: (1) the attic is fully sealed with closed-cell foam insulation, and (2) there is no access to the attic anyway. I've decided to buy an air purifier with 3 filters: washable pre-filter, then carbon particle filter, then a true HEPA filter.
I see that now. I was given inaccurate information. It's still going to be big deal for the parish. Thanks for the correction.

Hmmm. Interesting. Thanks for the heads up.
A huge Meta data center in West Feliciana Parish is in the planning stage right now. Entergy is involved.
Thanks Sir and Will. I will look into that.

My camp does not have an exhaust fan in the kitchen. I'm thinking of getting a portable air purifier to remove cooking odors. The kitchen/living room area is 350 sq ft. Any recommendations will be appreciated. TIA
Microwaves last much longer if used correctly. Do not open the door while the unit is running. Always turn it off before opening the door, unless the timer has already stopped the unit. Opening the door while the unit is running is a sure way of eventually breaking the door switches.
The biggest threat from Iran is its radical leadership. Hopefully, the citizens of Iran have come to appreciate a western economic standard of living enough to support a more secular government. Therefore, Israel should cut off the head of the snake and step back while the the people work out their next system of government. I'm not talking about the Bush-type regime change with direct US involvement. Rather, the US should let the Iranians work it out for themselves, but support those efforts by lowering or eliminating economic sanctions - not send USAID money over there.

I have been fortunate. My bay boat has been riding out hurricanes in an enclosed boat shed with a boat lift in lower Terrebonne Parish for the last dozen years with no damage to my boat, and very little damage to my boat shed. The shed sustained only $1,000 in damage when Category 4 Ida ran right over it. My boat had zero damage, again. For other reasons, I'm going to switch to fresh water fishing. Will be selling my boat and boat shed soon.
