A device and process for lifting and transiting a heavy object from a confined space is provided that increases the efficiency of repair of malfunctioning heavy appliances illustratively including hot water heaters. The device and process are able to adapt to a variety of obstacles and spatial challenges inherent in confined spaces where heavy appliances are frequently located. Additional benefits provided by the device and process are to reduce the risk of injury to a maintenance person working to repair a malfunctioning heavy appliance by allowing for the lifting and transiting of the appliance away from the confined space, thereby allowing for easier access and a larger working environment, while also reducing the risk of damage to property within, or in proximity to the confined space where a heavy appliance is located.
