a water heater blanket just wraps around the unit and comes with tape to hold the 2 edges together.think along the lines of a big beer hugger, lollicgencontractor
Spend your money on wrapping your water pipes, most likely the out side of your water heater is not hot now, so you will not be loosing heat there My guess you are using lots of hot waterTry to cut down your consumption.
First, measure the circumference of the tank with a piece of string, so you know how many inches around it isThen measure the heightTake these 2 numbers with you to Lowe'sThey will have stock blankets for water heaters, but may not have one for your size tankIf necessary, splice 2 together, or fabricate one out of kraft faced insulation, 24 wide, using duct tapeI'd use about R-13 (3 1/2 inches thick) or R-19 (5 1/2 inches thick) if space allowsMake cutouts to access pop off valve and tank drain.
Replacing an electric water heater with a newer electric unit will not substantially change your electric billHowever, replacing an older gas unit with a new high efficiency gas unit should create a modest difference on your gas billBefore exploring any blanket - read and follow the manufacturer's instructionsIn most cases, the addition of a blanket will void the warrantyHere's Rheem's/Rudd's recommendations from their use and care manualInsulation blankets, available to the general public, for external use on electric water heaters are not necessaryThe purpose of an insulation blanket is to reduce the standby heat loss encountered with storage tank heatersThis water heater meets or exceeds the National Appliance Energy Conservation Act standards with respect to insulation and standby loss requirements making an insulation blanket unnecessaryThe manufacturer’s warranty does not cover any damage or defect caused by installation, attachment or use of any type of energy saving or other unapproved devices (other than those authorized by the manufacturer) into, onto or in conjunction with the water heaterThe use of unauthorized energy saving devices may shorten the life of the water heater and may endanger life and propertyIn most cases, you would be better off insulating the UNINSULATED hot water pipes in your basement, than adding additional insulation to the ALREADY INSULATED tankGood Luck!
I would suggest you put the phone in your shoe, off of course, then, take your shoes off as per usual for the metal detectors, and reclaim your smuggled phone as soon as you're past the bullshit securityIt's also possible that you could wrap it in aluminum foil and say the foil wrapped phone, is a science class project, or something like that, or your lunch like a burrito or something.
