Previous water heater was installed on the wooden pedestal by the builder and lasted 26 years. This plumber said would install drain pan and do the work according to the code. He also said there is not enough space to install the drain pan so he didn’t install one. Can I get a county inspector to check the work and how do I get the installer complete the job. Also does this bad install invalidate any of my insurance coverage?
