Solid steel gas pipes are only a short length and often involve working with different elbows. You have to securely connect each section of the solid steel gas pipe together with the next section. Once the entire line has been run, then you have to check each joint for possible gas leaks. An easier option is to use flexible gas pipe , which is less expensive and easier to work with, than solid steel gas pipes.

Determining the Length of Flexible Gas Pipe You Require

To determine the length of flexible gas pipe, which is available on our website, here at Copperfield Chimney Supply, you will need to take some measurements. You can split a gas line at any point, by installing a tee. You will want to measure from under the home or in the basement, from the where you will install the tee, to under where the appliance will be located. Using this measurement, you will want to add additional length for running it through the floor, as well as having sufficient length to connect to the appliance.
