Hi all, and Happy New Year!

I've read several times something to the effect of "be careful of connecting any plastic piping to the water heater." Well, here's my setup: both cold water supply and hot water exit from the heater have about 5" of brass, then a brass elbow, then a fitting to hook up to my PEX. Is this an issue?

Thanks
