the stoves and dryers are hard piped in. It is not that hard as long as the floor is level and solid. Obviously you have to use a union and it helps i f the two sides connect.
WOW!
Storage water heaters do not vibrate, also true of tankless units. Also tru e (effectively) with most boilers and well-designed furnaces. But Dryers? H ard-piping a dryer without accommodation for vibration is a recipe for disa ster. And, how does one service a hard-piped stove? Are you sure?
How insurance works with a suspended license: The Insurance Company insures the vehicle, and what it does, not the driver. So, they will pay any valid claims to the limit of your policy. However, the will not defend you as th ey would if you were driving legitimately. You will eat the legal costs. An d the costs of any appeal(s), and so forth.
How insurance works with sub-standard work: We have our house insured for A ctual Replacement Cost/Replacement in Kind. That, as it happens, comes with an estimated limit of $1,300,000. It is a center-hall colonial built in 18
90 and so forth. You may bet that our insurance company verified everything in the house prior to writing the policy, including an on-site inside/out.I do something - the house burns down as a result. Two possibilities: a) If that "something" is specified within the limits of the policy as "mus t be done by licensed mechanic", I am SOL. They will pay legitimate liabili ty claims (such as burning down the house next door), but nothing on the ho use. b) If that "something" is not on the By-Licensed list, they will pay withou t demur. I might not get coverage again, but they will pay. c) I can do anything I want, listed or not, as long as I have it inspected by the proper people or organization(s). A record of acceptance covers ever ything.
