Hot water HHR bath!

I had to step away from the computer for a spell! So, what a time to multi-task!
(this does relate, trust me)
My water heater is set to only about 115 degrees. And as we all know, but prolly don't do, is comppletely drain it once in a while. So, I hooked up the hose to the hot-water heater drain and filled up the wash bucked, suds up the HHR to wash my HHR with hot water this time.
It's slightly chili out today but my feet stayed toasty warm in the warm water run off!

So, I have drained my hot water for this year and now have a clean HHR again!
OK, time to micro-towel dry .... BRB

It was a diversionary tactic of other issues of that moment! (didn't work so swell)
I live in the desert and I don't care too much for the cold, I needs hot water!

Seems a bit risky to me. Could get grit and sediment in the wash water and scratch the fine finish on your baby.
After all isn't that the purpose of draining the H/W heater?

Obviously she filtered the water through chamois before she used it

I didn't see any sinkers nor floaters! Good point, I obviously hadn't thought about the dangers of doing that! Glad my water heater wasn't contaminated!
