Heat exchanger water heater replacement
I have a bad water heater I need to replace. I just want to replace it with a non heat exchanger model.

What do I do with heat exchanger piping that I will no longer need?

Pictures please?

Just take the 2 hoses and connect them with a hose connector and hose clamps.

Take the hose connectors off at the engine and replace with plugs.

Silly question but why forgo free hot water?
