Re: Home Depot is gonna kill us! [RE-wrenches] Frank,

Lowe's has been doing the same around me for years.  I called CEC (the North American Distributor) and asked them to remove me from their "authorized" service person list after a lady called me crying (and I really do mean crying)  with the problems that her AquaStar was causing her.  It was sold to her with no warnings about needing a much larger gas line a larger flue and that it required absolutely clean water or it would clog everything up.  I think the concept is great and I am on my second one but it's operational characteristics are radically different than what 99.9% of Americans find acceptable.

Hello Fella Wrenches,
Just got a news flash from a friend that Home Depot is now selling AquaStar
tankless water heaters to the public for less than I can purchase them for. I
checked it out, and it is true. What's next, solar modules, inverters,
batteries, and charge controllers?

SUNcerely,
Frank Fowler
