Hi Group,

well found today it is time to replace the hot water heater, a leak
has developed at the bottom...15 or more years old so who can complain,
went to the only rv store in this little town to see if they had a by-
pass kit--(closed today) so went to the hardware store and bought a
bunch of fittings, of course none were the right size...
this is a small town so no lowes or home depot etc. tomorrow

will be back home in 2 weeks, where I would like to deal with the
replacement part, plumbing...tools etc.

so was hoping for an easy way to by pass the hot water heater,
temporarily......so we would still have cold h20 to flush, brush
teeth, dishes, cook etc. Can certainly get by a short bit without the
hot water heater. There is a nice shower here at the park that can be
used.

do not have the h20 diagrams, wondering how to effectively by pass the
hot water heater, and keep the rest of the h2o systems working...

thanks
