I went to one 2 hour class on CSST. What a joke. Every company has their own way of grounding it. I only have $300,000 worth of insurance and this is the only thing I turn down.The last house I was in that had CSST installed amazed me. Plumber secure it to a 3" baseboard the entire 18 feet of room for a corner fire place. Sofa and the vacuum cleaner had it dented beyond description. I think that it should be bonded at both end fittings and once every 10 feet if exposed like that.
