Elect. W/H Looped To Geothermal
A good customer had a geothermal
heat pump installed a couple years ago. I just noticed that they plumbed a loop to the electric water heater. They replaced the drain cock with a copper nipple when they looped in. Am I missing something,or isn't this setting up a situation for the early demise of the water heater? Looks like a brass nipple should have been used for this. Besides wanting to help out a good client, I just had the heater put in 3 years ago as part of a bath remodel I did for her, and don't need any extra warranty grief.
