OK GUYS - HERE'S THE OUTCOME;
let the hot water side drip - left to run the dogs around 00930- Back around 1030 ... still a drip. Made lunch - talked w/ the neighbor ... by then its about Noon, 50 degrees!! Said !@#$ - took a nap woke up around 1400 to a drip. Decided to tap on the metal/brass fitting w/ a screw driver and then turned the bypass valve off and on a couple of times ---- WOW HOT WATER!!!
I think I'll install a light in this section...again, hot water heater and lines are in the large slide - this section also has a fairly large void where you can see through to the back of the shower and all water lines. light would cover; sink, shower and cold water in and out of hot water heater. I'm sure I rig a light in there - or my son can---I've a bit larger these days -lol! There had to of been a cool breeze coming in somewhere. We had high winds (slamming against that slide), sleet and around 15-19 degrees for about 8 hrs. Glad I found this out now before I take this baby in anything colder!!
NOW for the BIG POSITIVE --- decided to clean out the cabinet to the right side of the sink ---------------- found a 5th of JACK DANIELS ... I'm about to pour me one and toast all of you guys for the help .... THANKS GUYS I'm Back .... lol!!
