Call up Billy Mays and order Super Duper Mighty Putty.

Make sure you get the triple order deal!
Activate the whole triple order and stick it on one of the blades of your ceiling fan.
Wait for it to harden and turn it on high speed.
It will shake the bubbles out of your hot water heater.

Only if you are NORTH of the equator, south of the equator you will need to go clockwise. But lets not forget to wear the chicken feather hat while chanting "Ooh cha goo! Ooh cha goo!"

You need to get real wet head, where is the common joe going to be able to find a pump capable of pushing more than the needed 1000psi to properly test the system. I geuss in a pinch he could rent a pressure washer and hook it up to a hose bib and feed the pressure washer from the neighor's hose bib.

Poor man's test pump. He would most likely need to call the city out to turn his water off first since he doesn't have the proper tool to turn the main valve off..........

Boy! Do I love to hear " hot water heater". Sounds like we are on hgtv.
Restaurants have water heater boosters to wash dishes with. THAT, is considered a " hot water heater".
Sorry. No offense to anyone. Just had to vent.
