Chef Boyardeez Nuts posted:Thanks thread! My understanding is that I should have some hot water on hand to soften the ends. You will definitely want some hot water or another source of heat (a little kitchen torch works, just don't overcook it) to soften up the tubing so that you can get it in/on whatever fitting you use.

You aren't allowed to hookup new gas lines here (and haven't been for quite a while) and my place didn't already have one when I bought it so that was out. The ancient electric at my old apartment was completely unusable for anything beyond boiling water so I was a bit concerned but the ~two year old mid-range electric that was already installed is totally fine (if a bit ugly) as long as you know you're not cooking on gas and use appropriate pans. I had an induction cooktop I was using at the apartment but it hasn't seen any real use since I've been here.

B-Nasty posted:No matter what, tank water heaters are 10-15 year devices. Some people act like old water heaters are a badge of honor, but it's pretty stupid to risk thousands of dollars of water damage for a $600 tank that has lived a useful life. Not that I would recommend keeping around a water heater that is 15 years old, but even a fancy water alarm is like $20.
