[QUOTE="BillM, post: 4382722, member: 45785"] Nope. Just got a quote recently for installing a tankless water heater. Gotta pull a permit, and the estimate was a minimum of $8000. Bought from Amazon, total about $600. Reused everything I could. Had to buy some new fittings. Lowes had an import 1/2" MPT to 1/2" copper pipe for a couple $$ each, or US-made, for $11 something, an Home Depot wanted nearly $13 for it. They were identical. I'd really rather not buy Import stuff, but I'm too broke (and cheap) unless there's a noticeable difference. And the import fittings were from on of our real allies, not someone who insists on pointing nuke-tipped missiles at us. [/QUOTE]
