No this is not necessary. Install the pipes as per usual. You can insulate the hot water pipes up to two meters or up to two yards from the hot water outlet from the hot water tank to prevent this.

While monthly gas bills can't be avoided, there are ways to lower your bill. A programmable thermostat is a necessity for anyone serious about cutting their utility bills. Set it lower when you are leaving for the day, and when you head to bed at night. Insulate your attic. This will lower your energy costs for the long term. While you're at it, insulate your hot water heater and any pipes that have a tendency to freeze. Line dry your clothes. The less you use your gas powered dryer, the better. Line drying has the added benefit of giving your clothes a fresh and wonderful scent.

A hot gas discharge line is a pipe or conduit through which hot gases are expelled or released, typically from a heating system, engine, or industrial process. This line helps to transport the hot gases away from the source to prevent heat buildup and potential hazards.
They should insulate their house before they insulate their hot water tanks because if the house might be cold they would want to turn on their heater and heat the house. If their heater is on with the water tank that would take up alot of energy.
No, the "liquid line" is the little line, also called the "high side" line. When operating properly, it should be hot, sometimes very hot.
There is insulation between the outside and inside wall of a hot water tank. There is also an insulation product that you can get to wrap around the outside of the hot water tank as well. Kit is usually available at any plumbing or hardware store. Only good for electrical HWT, as a gas tank has a flue and the insulation would be a waste on the outside of the gas tank
It should be hooked to a cold line.
depends on the delivery pressure of the gas....
so then you save more money and so you meet the requirements of the national building code.
Close the system and insulate this very well. That or make the surroundings as hot as the cup.
