I'm going to go out to N.j. plumbing supply tomorrow and buy two Bradford White 50 gallon heaters and put them in my basement next to my two, 5 gallon per flush toilets, my pallet of pall malls and my 10,000 rounds of Russian ammo. Damn them and their regs. (saying all this in jest)

I buy TSP from the paint section of Home Depot for laundry, though I'm not sure if it is food safe. And before anyone chastises me, I use it sparingly (like a teaspoon) and only when needed for stuff that is very soiled or has oil stains. I bought a small bag well over a year ago, probably closer to two years, and I'm still nowhere near the bottom.Rob_Sandow said:

Maybe, but I am still working down my stash of Electrasol dishwasher detergent with the real phosphates in it. I've probably got about another year or two of supply before I have to find another source or upgrade my dishwasher.

Oh my god, we will have to use more efficient water heaters! The horror! First off, the 2015 date only applies to manufacturing. All lesser efficient models will still be on the shelf while available. It will probably be several years more before stocks run out. On demand water heaters are a great choice, very reliable and reasonably priced. Not hard or expensive to install. They already meet the new regs. The newer heat pump electric tank type heaters are also a good choice and they don't need any flue. I would further recommend that instead of spending thousands stocking up on old water heater products, install a solar water heater which I believe has both rebates and tax credits! Otherwise, if you really need to stress needlessly about government regulation, just watch Fox News instead.
