This  is for installing a new electric water heater. If you want gas do the plumbing  only and get East Meadow Plumbing and Heating gas  installer to locate it and hook up the gas. 
                  First  you need to locate the water cut off to the house. It may be out at the street  with the water meter or there could be an in line one somewhere between the  outside and the water heater. 
                  Cut  the water on in a sink and have someone watch that it starts to slow when you  think you have the right cut off. It will stop completely after the pipes have  drained. 
                     
                    You  will have to cut the pipes and install "t" fittings so you can  connect to the heater. There are a lot of rules for gas so you have to get a  gas professional to locate it for you.  |
