Default Installing a new Gas Water Heater

I heard they stopped using copper flex, cause something in
the gas reacts with it. Black iron, it is. The code people
may permit stainless flex gas line.

desgnr,

Best to check with your local authorities and see what the
code
requires. I'd go with either solid copper or iron pipe for
the gas
line and solid copper for the water connections. Based on
your
confusion you might want to have a professional do it. At
least get a
permit and have it inspected.

Good luck.
