Never mind raising eyebrows, how is our industry going to find the thousands of design tech's and literally dozens of thousands of installers necessary to serve this market? Plumbing contractors are going to start doing this work- both conventional and MP systems - regardless of licensing or code or jurisdictional variables. BECAUSE IT MAKES GOOD BUSINESS SENSE. And who's to stop them? Homebuilders will appreciate the one-stop shopping and many plumbing contractors already have design departments. I've said this dozens of times already in this forum but I'll say it again - it's not rocket science.

That's work you no longer have access to. Does that raise any eyebrows?
