    maybe I missed it, but,
    is there anywhere in this thread, or your other, where there is hammering or noise from that incorrect hartford loop "nipple" ?
    I'm not saying that the copper or length is correct,
    but, if it isn't broken , , ,

    I'm not living there right now so I don't know. I won't find out for a few years. There's a few other things they said they'd do then didn't, like skimming and even just installing a skim port. When I was there last week it sounded like Blue Man Group was practicing when the heat came on, but I wasn't in the basement so I can't say if that section of pipe got in on the act.

    Honestly it's just time to move on. I had (what I thought was) a lovely walkthrough with a knowledgeable tech and their salesperson. They seemed like they weren't what WGSH dubs knuckleheads. The salesperson came over to my house later in the day to get a check and we were talking when she handed me what I thought was a contract, I checked to make sure it specified following all the manufacturer specifications, and I just signed it without reading the fine print. Even if I had read it I might not have pumped the brakes and requested an actual contract. I honestly believed they were going to do all the things we discussed. But I just had to let it all go. Chalk it up as an expensive life lesson.
