Last night I got home and went to take a shower when my husband's studio flooded with an inch of hot water. We found out that the water heater built up a lot of pressure and steaming hot water gushed out of the overflow pipe. A few weeks ago I had purchased new elements for the water heater and decided to get super duper double coil stainless steel elements. I found out last night that the elements were just too powerful and made the water boil.
I should have realized this because after installing them we burned ourselves several times in the shower and even the kitchen/bathroom sinks. We adjusted the elements to as low of a temperature as they could go and still got burned.
We now have new elements that aren't super duper and aren't burning us either.
Just another day in paradise.

OUCH!!! I'll bet they really jacked up your electric bill too, which hurts even more!
Glad things are back to a manageable temperature...
