We lived in hokkaido in the early 90s. Had a propane instant heater with manual valves and a click sparker. Thing was brutal and utterly unable to manage mixing and variable water pressure. Got burned a few times while also getting sprayed with freezing water. Interesting to be so cold, desperate for hot shower, and then combine with the fear of scalding… ice on the inside of our single pane windows. Brrr.

Flex line: they kept saying they wished they had it, dont know what their deal was with available parts. They definitely had some cognitive issues as everything took them forever and they still kept messing up. Guy took forever with the pipe cutter. I dunno… glad its over.

Weird about the bad water in Hokkaido. We lived at the northern most end of the main island, and that's where we had the great instant on in the 80s.

Crazy about the flex line, "well go get some." That sucks to have crap contractors. You never know when that's going to be the case.
