In trying to figure out where to place the heater, I have two good spots. Each would be sourcing the gas from a different ng gas line. Each would be from a similar junction (see pictures).
My question about the two junctions. They both have a cap at the same point, pointing toward the ground, near where they enter a furnace. Is this a valid point to take ng from? Just curious, as it seems like there is no reason to have those "T" junctions at those points other than maybe there is a reason for those caps at those points?

I'd google it a bit. I know water lines have that extra length acting as an anti-hammer relief. Older houses have that hammering sound sometimes, this cured that. I'm not sure if it's the same for gas, but it's worth checking into. I T'd mine off the copper line in the ceiling above my hot water heater, and ran more copper line out to the garage.
