Fairly soon I believe I'm going to tackle the replacement of the two long heater hoses that run back to the water heater. All of the other hoses we've replaced up at the engine, and many if not all looked original. For now I've put in shutoff valves for the two water heater hoses and am considering keeping those shut off for now. Yes the hot water is nice but I'd rather play it safe until I can do this. From what I can tell there's no issue in closing those off. The hoses look and feel just fine but I'm not sure how long I will trust them.
I've read up here:

Any other tips for this? Sounds like we'll go in behind the fridge to help feed through the two holes in the floor, which seems like the worst part of it. Unfortunately last year I replaced the deteriorated foam behind the fridge so I'll have to take that back out.
Thanks all!
