significantly larger and significantly more expensive. >> reporter: effective april 16 the federal law requires all manufacturers to make most water heaters more efficient. and that means a bigger tank with more insulation. up to two inches wider and taller which may require some remodeling if yours is in a tight space. >> if it's in a cubby hole under a countertop that will be a problem. >> reporter: the new improved version could be hundreds more which has many rushing out to buy a new old model. manufacturers can no longer make them after april 16 and the remaining old models are going fast. >> the standard life of a water heater is 7 or 8 years. so if you have reached that point it's a good time to consider replacing it. >> reporter: most warranties expire after six years so if your water heater is nearing that mark, it may be time to think about replacing it before your next cold shower. >> can't go without hot water. >> reporter: now, while the new models will cost more up front you will save on those energy

bills. another option, are the tankless water heaters which are more expensive up front but more energy-efficient because they only heat the water when it's needed. and remember, if you have a consumer story idea, give us a call 888-5-helps-u. >> it's a "tankless job" > thank you very much. i just replaced my water heater. i didn't know there were new ones coming. >> good for you just in time. >> thank you. now let's check in with paul deanno. >> he is live in san francisco. of course you have the weather and a little bocce activity. >> this is a very, very fun place to be. an amazing view of san francisco bay and the ferry building. chances are the first thing you think of is not bocce at the ferry building but there is a beautiful bocce court right in front of the ferry building. there is a bocce league which is highly competitive and hundreds of folks who play it in the heart of san francisco's financial district. we are here live tonight at the

chance on easter sunday. it will not feel like it is outside right now coming up on easter sunday. it will be 10 to 15 degrees cooler, cloudy, breezy and for part of the day it will be raining. so some big changes coming. tonight it's clear and chilly. we are sunny and mild coming up on friday. easily the warmest day of the next week. we get cloudier on saturday. and then on easter sunday, it will be cooler with that shower chance. not an all-day washout. don't cancel anything outdoors. so many of you may be doing a backyard easter egg hunt or going to church. don't cancel anything but for a couple of hours throughout the day it may be raining lightly on easter sunday. highs tomorrow, for your friday, fairfield 71. vallejo 68. concord 72. fairfield 71. and san jose your high tomorrow 72 degrees. saturday we don't hit 70. it will be cooler and cloudier. sunday near the bay you don't even hit 60 with a chance of showers. but it's not just one rain chance. another low pressure area passes by to our north giving us an additional rain chance on monday. and yet another rain chance on

tuesday. three days with the rain chance in a row. that's the first time we have done that in the entire calendar year. back out here live a few minutes away before the kickoff party begins for the ferry bocce league. we are right here at the corner of spear and market. this venue is phenomenal. a great view of the ferry building, san francisco bay, the bay bridge, and folks are going to be enjoying a very nice weather evening outside and guys, it's a good thing we're not doing this early next week because we would need a really, really, really big umbrella. >> perfect weather today. >> it is. >> another bit of advice, don't hide the easter eggs on the bocce ball court. >> reporter: good point. that could be disastrous. >> could be bad. >> thank you. bringing down candlestick. the 49ers' former home disappearing before our eyes. a new look at all the progress.
