Scope of Works – Hot Water Line to Rear Bathroom, Kensington Background A new electric water heater is being installed on the fence side of the main house (by others). Hot water to the rear bathroom shower currently comes from an existing gas-fired water heater, which is to be decommissioned. Refer to the attached site diagram. Quote 1 – New hot water line Connect a new hot water line at the outlet of the new water heater. Run the line along the boundary fence line, buried, approx. 15 m. Minimum cover as required by AS/NZS 3500. Note there is a large tree near the rear building. Run the line along the face of the rear building, then vertically up the side of the building.
