Power requirement for gas heater ?
We are in the middle of a storm related power outage in the Seattle area and my neighbor has a natural gas hotwater heater.. He says his heater works fine without electricity.. just curious.. is this true ?

An older gas WH probably uses a standing pilot light....so electric is not involved. As long as water and gas is available...it will run fine during power outages.
