I really enjoyed this install Evan! It was wise to recommend to people to hire an electrician if they are not comfortable with any aspects of this installation. I was really happy to see your expansion tank connected to the cold water line at your water heater. I installed one myself which really kept the water pressure from going up too high from the expansion that occurs when the water heater has been running for a while. Thank you so much for another unique video that is not just like all of the rest of the Tesla KZbinrs.

I thought the same. One thing I thought about is the way he did it is great for at least marking all the places the screws should go. Soooo I would do that and then take the lights down and put in the anchors.
