While the framing crew is currently dealing with another job site before wrapping up on our house, the plumbers were working on the ducts for our ventilation system, hooking it up to the ERV unit un the utility room (looks quite elaborate, see photo). They also completed the hot/cold water lines as you can see with the red and blue plastic pipes in the photos. In the old house we still had all copper lines. But nowadays, only the very ends of the lines are copper so that any end-point valves etc. can be soldered on. It looked like the system was being pressure tested while we visited today.

For our tub in the master bathroom, we needed a larger size hot water heater. With the heat pump unit on top, this looks like quite impressive.
