Default Nailing into CSST

Many roofers are nailing holes into CSST around here. Here is video.

What a brainiac move on behalf of the CSST installer.

When they installed the gas line and seen that it was touching the roof decking, they should of had more common sense. DUH......

Even though the roofer punctured the line, this incident is not the roofers fault.

Tons of that stuff around here...usually in the crawlspace, though. I have never seen it in an attic.

Local codes solve nothing.

Notice how the councilwoman was saying that all the codes and standards were followed and all the inspections were proper.

Apparently, they were not.

Just my 2 1/2 cents.
