How to get the best results
- Turn off the main gas supply and follow local codes during installation. If in doubt, consult a licensed professional.
- Inspect the connector for any bends or kinks before installation; route it to minimize stress on the fittings.
- After installation, check for leaks using a mild soap solution on all joints; never use a flame to test for leaks.
- Periodic inspections are wise—look for signs of wear, corrosion, or damage, and replace if needed.
