A condensate collector () for use in water heating apparatus (). The apparatus () includes a liquid storage tank (), a combustion chamber (), a flue () disposed above the combustion chamber (), and, a condensate collector (). The condensate collector () includes a receptacle () positioned in an entry end () of the flue (), a discharge outlet () for discharging condensate collected in the receptacle () for subsequent transfer to a drain.

Liquid heating and storage apparatus

A flue baffle for a water heater comprises a plurality of holes along a length of the baffle and a plurality of bent blades along the length of the baffle, where each hole of the plurality of holes is adjacent to a bent blade of the plurality of bent blades. The holes are configured to permit flue gas to pass through the holes. The bent blades can have an alternating pattern where a first bent blade extends from one side of the baffle and the next bent blade extends from an opposite side of the baffle. A press tool for forming the baffle comprises a piercing tool for forming the plurality of holes and a lance and fold die for forming the bent blades.

Flue gas baffle and manufacturing process therefor

A water heater tank anode support and or locator device for an anode provided in a water heater tank, the support device having an anode engaging portion to engage said anode, and a tank engaging formation for operatively engaging a base of the tank.
