Hey there. Been reading your forum for a while, I'm building a house and nearing completion. So my plumber roughed in everything and then came out to give me a quote on finishing the rest out and never got back to me. I've hooked up the toilet and kitchen sink with no problem but I am curious as to why my hot water line has pressure in it and will run water, same as the cold side, even though I have not put in the water heater yet. I was under the impression the hot water side had to go through the hot water heater first. Can anybody clarify this? Was it hooked up this way to test pressure on the hot water lines?
Thanks!
Thanks!
