1 edit | Re: water heater installed right? I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with mityfowl about sloppy work being "normal". I take great pride in my installations, including work I do in attics, even if no one but me ever sees it.
If you're not happy with the job, I'd recommend calling the contractor and telling him you're not happy. Aesthetics is important. There's nothing wrong with using an apprentice. How else are they going to learn, but if he did a sloppy job, he needs to know.
As far as the aluminum tape being used on the double-wall vent pipe, I'm pretty sure that's a code violation and would not be allowed by The National Fuel Gas Code. If the vent pipe is installed correctly, there is no reason to use aluminum tape. -- Photography is more than a medium for factual communication of ideas; it is a creative art. - Ansel Adams |
