I had Home Depot installing a new tank for me up here in MA. They arrived, brought the heater down to my basement. I confirmed it was the correct model. Then they tried to jack up the install price by saying they had to replace the pressure relief valve and then lying and saying it was a different size so I needed to pay for adapters. It was not a different size. The pressure valve was already part of HD's install package. They were just scammers. I made them hall it away.

If it wasn't gas I'd have installed myself, but I ended up buying it and having it installed by a local plumber that I could trust.
