This was my first season with a heater , i have a Rheem 106K heater. When it comes time to close i know , disconnect gas line , water inlet/out.... Should there be any service or cleaning done inside the heater after i bring it in the house??

I agree !.. thinking about a chainsaw at 2am. - - - Updated - - - i would buy it by the case

Thats a d*amn good idea... will be doing that TODAY !

Would i want to keep the heater on constantly until it hits the desired temp (85deg) ?? Or can i get it up to like 79 ,put solar cover on overnight , then turn it back on early morning ?

Just had the gas line run for my new Rheem 105k heater , Fired it up , seems like water been gaining about 1deg per hr. , seem right??.. Water from return seems somewhat warm.

Thanx will do
