    Well, Nick it is a great thing home centers and builders do not bother to do “code” piping as fires create work.

    Think about it if people had bothered to check for a masters licensee actually on the job then there would be less fires and deaths and there goes the economy.

    When a home burns down in the middle of the night from a poor installation almost everyone wins.

    1- The builder gets to build more homes.

    2- The insurance companies get a tax write off

    3- More work for the construction guys

    4- The Funeral director gets his fair share of the pie

    5- The fire department can now justify more equipment and more man power

    6- The motel down the block gets to rent rooms as the new home is built.

    Doing the “right job” does cost more after all why put in a system that is proven safe and had a track record for longevity.

    Ever notice the buildings in England, Germany last and last over 300 years?

    Ever see a “state of the art” under slab heating system fail with in a year of installation?

    Good thing the Pyramids were not given to the lowest bidder huh?
