ABSTRACT:
A hot water tank bracket assembly for affixing the tank to the framing studs of buildings, thereby, providing a secure stable mount of the tank to the wall in the vent of a moderate or substantial sized earthquake. Preferably, the bracket assembly comprises a mounting bracket, a high-strength flexible strap to secure the water tank to the bracket, and mounting flanges which can be slid along the edge of the bracket to permit aligning of the mounting flanges to the framing studs. Additionally, the edge facing the bracket is arcuate in shape in order to receive and cradle a significant portion of the water tank periphery.
