Not to unduly alarm homeowners out there, but it’s of vital importance for you to know that your water … could explode! Sorry, but it’s true. Your water heater is a dependable workhorse home system that provides your plumbing fixtures with a steady supply of hot water in all seasons. But when things go wrong with your water heater, they could really go wrong — occasionally with explosive results. Not to … um, blow things out of proportion, as the phenomenon is relatively uncommon — especially with modern units, which have improved failsafe mechanisms — and the chances are miniscule that you’d get rocket-like liftoff through your roof like they did on an episode of TV's MythBusters back in 2007. But a water heater explosion poses great danger, so knowing how to ensure yours doesn’t become a ticking time bomb is a must. ‎⁨@Matt Schmitz and Lauren blow the lid off everything you need to know about exploding water heaters... #waterheater #plumbing #plumber #hvac #fyp
