Sorry to hear about the ware damage. I just replaced our "hot water maker" yesterday. I have a floor drain and leak sensor. Also frequent trips to the auxiliary refrigerator in the same room helped with the most recent leakage. Have shutoff valves on in and out lines with unions. Pull out old unit remove pipe stubs, install in new heater slide under supply and outlet lines, tighten unions, connect electric supply, turn on water feed and check for leaks and good to go. I keep saying I'm going to go tankless, but the circumstances require a replacement heater. This one was still under warranty. Thankfully your damage was minimal. My brother woke up to about a foot of water in his basement once.
