Whole house and appliance gas lines
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.
