Reply to comment by valleyman02 in Electric water heater vs Natural Gas by movdqa

The water heater is in the basement and it runs through a metal chimney that's 3 inches in diameter. We don't have any chimneys related to fireplaces. The house has four floors. Code is 4 inches but it sounds like 6 would be a better idea.

We're going with electric. Hopefully they can do it tomorrow.

My wife is in Singapore and I can put the kids in another residence that we share but that place doesn't have internet access. I'm putting that in next week.
