Fix
All Plumbing will install any gas line for any
project including black pipe, scotch wrapped and
coated stainless steel flex lines.
If you just purchased a new stove, oven range or
dryer we will install it for you. We will make
sure that the job is done right the first time.
Do you remember when the material was first
introduced. Many of my fellow contractors who
install gas lines thought it was unsafe. Their
arguments never made sense to me. For as long as
I have been in the home building business, we
always used similar brass appliance connector
tubing when gas was supplied to a clothes dryer,
a cooktop, or a gas range. Hundreds of thousands
of houses have these corrugated appliance
connectors in service right now. They have
worked swell for many years.
The
CSST has many advantages. Perhaps the biggest
one is labor savings. Traditional black iron
pipe takes a lot of time to cut and thread. I
know as I have installed thousands of linear
feet of the heavy material. As you said, the new
CSST is installed like electrical wire. You
simply pull the material between two points and
cut it to length with simple tubing cutters.
Black iron pipe is the exact opposite. A typical
black iron pipe installation requires a
professional to precisely measure, cut, and
thread the individual pieces of pipe. All of
these steps are very time consuming.
Flammable Vapors
Vapors from flammable liquids can explode and catch fire, causing death or severe burns. That is why it's vitally important, that you should NEVER use flammable liquids such as gasoline, adhesive solvents, lighter fluid, mineral spirits, paint thinner and kerosene, around water heaters, furnaces, or any appliance with the potential for flame or sparks.
Keep flammable products far away from the water heater or furnace, stored in an approved container, tightly closed and out of children’s' reach. Flammable products, improperly stored or used near an open flame give off invisible vapors that can travel the length of a house and be ignited by any of a dozen or more household sources of flame or spark. A few precautionary measures can prevent a tragedy from taking place.
