Gas Supply Line |
|
● Provide a gas supply line of ³⁄ " (1.9 cm) rigid pipe to the range |
|
location. A smaller size pipe on longer runs may result in insufficient |
A |
gas supply. With LP gas, piping or tubing size can be ¹⁄ " (1.3 cm) |
|
minimum. Usually, LP gas suppliers determine the size and materials |
|
used in the system. |
|
NOTE: Pipe-joint compounds that resist the action of LP gas must |
B |
be used. Do not use TEFLON®† tape. |
|
Flexible metal appliance connector: |
|
● If local codes permit, a new CSA design-certified, 4 to 5 ft (122 to |
|
152.4 cm) long, ¹⁄ " (1.3 cm) or ³⁄ " (1.9 cm) I.D., flexible metal |
|
appliance connector may be used for connecting range to the gas |

supply line. |
|
● A ¹⁄ " (1.3 cm) male pipe thread is needed for connection to the |
E |
female pipe threads of the inlet to the appliance pressure regulator. |
|
● Do not kink or damage the flexible metal tubing when moving the |
|
range. |
D |
Rigid pipe connection: |
|
The rigid pipe connection requires a combination of pipe fittings to |
|
obtain an in-line connection to the range. The rigid pipe must be level |
A. 26¼" (67.9 cm) with handle |
with the range connection. All strains must be removed from the |
B. 36" (91.4 cm) |
supply and fuel lines so range will be level and in line. |
C. 46¼" (117.5 cm) |
|
D. 29⁄" (75.9 cm) |
|
E. 24¼" (61.6 cm) |
● Must include a shutoff valve: |
|
The supply line must be equipped with a manual shutof valve. This |
|
valve should be located in the same room but external to the range |
|
opening, such as an adjacent cabinet. It should be in a location that |
|
allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access to shutoff |
|
valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the range. |
