    Pipes going into wall very loose under sink
    I installed a point-of-use water heater and noticed that by the time I was done re-fitting all the pipes, the copper pipes coming out of the wall were much looser than they had been when I started. Is this normal?

    Unless you see signs of a leak I would think that every thing is OK. Some time the copper pipes are not secured in the wall and therefore easy to move about.
