I always wanted to weigh them, but didn't feel like destroying a scale in the process. ;-)

Definitely.

In my current house, it's on a platform in the attic close to the attic stairs, which are in the garage. It will be relatively easy to change when the time comes.

We're replaced more heaters due to sediment than to actually breaking down. Anyone notice how much heavier an old heater is than the new one? It's not all due to construction differences.
