Complementing Shaun's answer, you're not allowed to use standard compression fittings. I can't be bothered to look it up (sorry!) but I think installations should use Type A compression fittings and no soldering. Fines can easily reach five figures if you have a leak.

On the other hand, if you're arranging someone to install this for you and are just wanting some extra info no harm in asking.
