[QUOTE="klmno, post: 399800, member: 3699"] I was going to wait until tomorrow to do my third and final load of laundry for this weekend. What makes it a little more difficult is that there is sheet vinyl flooring in that room that extends under the washer and dryer but not completely wall to wall so it is possible that water is running under it, making it even more difficult to determine exactly where it started. Still, I don't see water showing up out there today. I'm going to run the wife shortly and see if any does, which would point back to the water heater (because it will use more hot water than the washer on a warm cycle) or the possibility that it is coming from the crawl space. I think you're right on about this lady not being an experienced landlord. She apparently had been trying to sell this house thru this realtor but it didn't sell so the realtor is now a rep for her while I lease it. I just don't want to pay utility bills for a leak. I do understand that if I deliberately did something to cause water leakage to get worse or coninue, then I would be responsible for consequences to other systems' damage. But it seemed a bit of a stretch when she insinuated that the amount of water seen could cause this furnace to go out and I'd be responsible for it. This furnace is over 50 years old and there wasn't enought water around it to even get half way up the legs. It's just been one of those weeks. I was sick, very sick, all week. (My jinx I guess from posting on another thread that I hadn't been sick in a long time.) Then, I've had this nagging feeling all week that this is going to cause a problem at work, which by the way, I hate working for my boss. So I have to deal with looking for a new job- it's just nagging at me too much. Then, there's difficult child. Our state, as it turns out, actually requires that a kid who has been turned over to Department of Juvenile Justice be turned over to either CSU (courts' people who will over see the entire family) or dss. That's a little different than my original understanding that these were options. There is no option. I either stick it out for another round with difficult child or he goes to dss/ my bro and there is no other option available. I can't begin to tell you the stress this causes me. Neither one is in difficult child's best interest. Or mine. [/QUOTE]
