Re: Tex-Mex Built Home
Rick,

I'm sure you also noticed those two pipe nipples laying on top of the water heater, the ones with the groove around them?

Yeah, those are the 'heat traps' which are required to have been installed into the 'hot' and 'cold' at the tank, and, yes, the 'hot' heat trap nipple is different from the 'cold' heat trap nipple (the cold has to allow water to flow down, the hot has to allow water to flow up).
