There's a warning on the water heater stating "caution metallic/chromed hose and conductive control valve shall not be used"


My installer used this hose for the inlet. Looking at it, i think it's chromed hose.



How ever, this hose is in between 2 plastic fittings.



What do you guys think? Is it safe or not? Experts are welcomed to comment

Isn't that dangerous? You're planning to change the hose?

But we can also accidentally touch the inlet hose if there is a short corcuit

That inlet hose is not provided

Yes that hose is plastic. My inlet hose is metallic. Should i change that one to plastic as well?

That hose in the link seems too stiff

Hard to bend. If you see how my photos, there will be a lot of bending to connect the inlet to the water heater

Oo ok you've been using this hise for quite sometimes already?

I'm ok with the position. Maybe I'm a small person.

Can you eloborate more on why do you think that it's unnecessary to change to a plastic hose? Don't you think it's dangerous to have a metallic hose at the inlet in the event of short circuit?

Yah seem flexible enough. How much it cost per meter?

How about accidental contact?

I need to check back the manual. But do you think this height is too low? I feel like it's just nice

Hmm the tiles are drilled already. Changing the position will leave the drilled tiles exposed and it wont look good anymore
