Drowned water heater.

Update: Down 4" in 2.5 hours. Think it will take more than 5 hrs. No worries, nothing stored down there and could use a new water heater. Getting anything out of the 88 yr. old landlord is tricky though :-)
Thanks so much for all the kind words!!

Thanks for the concern Pat!!
Got it pumped and shopvac out to dry floor. It flowed another 2" of water in 2 hrs. but is staying steady at the 2" level. Got ahold of the landlady she is sending her carpenter $%#@! out to have a look see. Tried to light the water heater no joy. Thank god the office has a hot shower. Looking for new digs. Too old for this...
