Ditto! Good advice above!

You couldn't pay me to install a Cesspool Water Heater!

I would hope that this being a gas appliance is being installed by a pro!

There are many consequences that may arise from an improper installation. Loud noises and failing to wake up in the morning being a few of them.

Installation is not always as easy as copying what is already there. Since your last water heater was installed there have been code changes as well as the introduction of new safety technology in the burner area (FVIR) that is very sensetive to improper installation.

Please have this unit installed by a pro!

If you do not heed this advice I at least ask that you have this job permitted and inspected. Just to keep you and you family from being in the news.
