[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 419751, member: 6969"] I read your original description as you could not get access to the tank so could not even see where the heater might be or it's age or condition. But now I understand you can see the tank and see where the immersion heater is, inaccessible behind the tank, so it is a fair conclusion that it won't have a safety cut out due to it's age, and the impossibility of ever servicing it. Just goes to show the difference between what you actually saw, and the perception we have of what you saw from the description. I had one a bit like that where we had to cut a hole in the plasterboard of an adjoining room to get at the immersion heater, and aniother with a top entry heater where although you could access the heater, to actually get it out to change it required cutting a hole in the ceiling as the tank was high up in the cupboard. Some plumbers are just mad. [/QUOTE]
