That's how much our hot water heater upstairs holds.
This morning I thought I heard the shower running upstairs.
It was a shower alright.
40 gallons of water came through the ceiling into my kitchen, dining room and living room.
I figure we sucked up about 35 gallons. That means there's still 5 saturated in the carpets, walls and ceiling.
Not exactly the plan I had for 7:00 AM on a Saturday morning. Gotta love the retro house.

NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is the worst nightmare ever! We had that same thing happen to us just shortly after moving into our home and having brand new carpet. (well not exactly the same but we had some major water damage from water coming from upstairs to the downstairs level through the ceiling.) Ours fortunately didn't happen before Christmas but waited until New Year's Eve.
Cheryl I am so so so sorry. Rent some big industrial sized fans and start blowing everything like crazy.
No bueno! That sucks! So sorry that happened.
oh no oh no oh no
Why do they put those things in the house, anyway?
