I was told there should be at least one foot of copper or steel pipe
between the heater and PEX or CPVC pipes. Looking on the web, all I see
are opinions, no facts. Does the code have anything to say about it?
What about the manufacturers of these plastic pipes?

I do see where the heat from the heater could cause failure of these
pipes, so I'd rather just use the metal pipes, but I'm looking to find
out what is supposed to be done.

My water heater has been plumbed with plastic for 30 years (white PVC
in, CPVC out). There is a short metal riser right at the stubs but it
came with the heater. I am not sure if it is a thermal trap or if it
holds the anodes.

Mine has PEX, copper, brass, rubber and galvanize nipples. Installed
it myself ~ 6 years ago.

The install manual for the new proposed WH would be a good
reference to start with. Sometimes practical issues make
it a moot point too. Like if you're going to use those
flex hoses to connect it.

IIRC some thing about dielectric nipples,
to reduce galvanic effect. Not an issue
with platic, of course.

Their love dolls vibrate more slowly because they use 50hz ac power. ^_^

What will happen if DC power is used?
