[QUOTE="Snattlerake, post: 3689375, member: 44288"] I was in the garage all day still organizing my fastener supplies when I got hungry about 1700 and decided to wash up. Hmmm, no hot water. I let it run for about 3 minutes and still no hot water. I followed the steps to relight but there was no gas coming out. I checked the reset switch and it was in its normal state, N/C so I suspected the thermocouple. The water heater was installed about 5 years ago so it was probably not that either. Then it got cold outside and my HVAC heater was pumping out cold air. I checked with my next door neighbor to see if he had gas and he did. Checking the bank account and seeing that ONG robbed it I called them and reported my outage. About 30 minutes later, the gas truck shows up and I explain what has happened. He walks to the backyard and sees our new line they were putting in all this summer was not hooked up to the meter. He asked me if this was newly installed. I replied, about 6 months ago. He shook his head. He said Looks like you were missed when they hooked them all up. They killed the main line you were on today. We'll have you fixed in about 2 hours. About 2300 hours we had water heating and warm air. Many KUDOS to these fellows! [/QUOTE]
