[QUOTE="batty, post: 14627, member: 66"] Have done a few in my time, I used to use blow torch to heat around them before i took them out although a chippy i no who has done a plumbing course says the best way to get them out is to get a stanley knife or saw between gasket and top of immersion heater as it is only the gasket that stops them from coming out. Are you in a hard water area as where i come from the water is very hard so usually they are full of scale. I tried to avoid doing them these days as they can be a pain in the a*** to do.
