Is it part of a spa tub?

Here's another one you should consider. "EcoNet Controls EBV105-HCM Z-Wave Water Valve" sold on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B010MG372E/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20

Hi Auradeus, When I wanted to replace my 100,000 BTU on demand hot water heater, I was also having a hard time trying to understand the gas pipe size issue. Three companies tried to sell me a 199,000 BTU water heater and said I would need to replace all my gas piping. Using the link below I was...
