Drew...  its copper pipe.  :)  No worries.

Zakk:

Don't let the Home Depot guys sell you on compression fittings then, only solder copper.  You'll save yourself a bit aof headache down the road.

Mameotron:

Zakk, I'm sorry.

It's really sad, Home Depot used to be a great place to go for info as well as materials, but lately they have turned into a real circus.  With a brand new Lowe's now open and a Menard's under construction I'm hoping they shape up.

Sorry for the rant.  And I can't get that stupid Menard's commercial jingle out of my head now.

So true.  The only thing I could POSSIBLY add to your sensible comments are

More season's greetings to you all from Menards!

Anyway, lol.   :police:  Finally got the new one in, wasn't too bad a job at all.  Hardest part was getting the old one out of there.  That sucker was heavy, I think the tank on it is cast iron.

What's funny is, I found an old service contract sticker on the backside of the heater.  The service contract expired in 1974!!!

That thing is older than me!@
