Kitchens coming along. Thanks for posting Jim.
Little by little. Still waiting for the replacement cabinets to come in
@@getitdonehomerepair That's frusteratiing. It's like getting a bad Dorman part. Owell you can relax after you get that last and final cabinet in.
Hahaha Dorman parts
@@getitdonehomerepair Sadly enough I just ordered a Dorman a.c. delete kit for my truck......
Thank you for such helpful introduction!!!
Glad it was helpful!
I don't believe you need to use thread sealant on the compression end of the fitting, only on the non-flared end.
Thanks for watching.
Correct
@@Killerpaintman I agree. Tape and sealant is only applied to the regular pipe thread fittings.
Yeah. I was going to say the same thing.
Per the instructions, apply sealant to external threads of non-flared end of the fitting.
Fyi, there are two fittings. One going to the wall and one going to the device. Also, a flared end of a fitting is rounded. The threads don't go all the way.
Flare fitting do not need pipe thread sealant
thank you for the video, i was wondering, what do you do if you replace the gas line, and there's still leaks detected by my handheld meter?, but only at the connection site to the appliance
I would not play around I would call the gas company
If thread seals not coming with hose Wich one should I need to buy
Very helpful. A plumber quoted me $1300 to replace mine on a gas range top because the line ran to the hot water heater. Ridiculous, I found the hose for less than $80. Thank you!
Glad it helped
That’s ridiculous
It is sad that some plumbers are thieves. It pays to know something yourself.
Mine is too tight to break lose and I’m afraid I’m going to break the control valve off water heater in my attempt. Any advice?
good job. remember to unplug the electric cord for safety....
Great show! I'm trying to split my gas line so I can run a gas dryer as well as my gas range!! Any suggestions? Is the Shark Bite a possibility?
I would never use any shark bites on gas. I would recommend that you have a plumber look at it. You can not take a change of having a leak. thanks for watching.
Didn't find what I was looking for. One end of the new line has a internal valve. What end does it connect to, wall or stove?
Probably the wall. If you look at the instructions or on the flexible gas line, you'll see basic instructions or illustrations.
This might just be a silly question, but I just replaced my gas dryer with an electric one. I do need all the room I can get in my laundry as my new dryer is significantly bigger than the old one. Is it a possibility to have a tech come out and remove the gas line from the wall? That way I can push the dryer back up against the wall a bit more. Or do you feel this might be more trouble than what it's worth? Thanks!
Yes, a simple fix for a professional or handyman.. One has to cut or knock out some of the drywall to gain access to, and around, the incoming gas pipe.. Then simply remove the valve, and replace it with a cap on the end of the now open pipe.. Of course, you would do this 'after' shutting off the main gas line to the home.. Always test for leaks..
Again, a very quick fix.. And yes, it will allow the new unit to be pushed back..
@@michaelshoup2703 I appreciate the feedback. Thank you!
Thanks for your input.
You are NEVER supposed use Pipe Dope on flared fittings.
That's what I thought
The tape you use is Yellow for Gas.
.
So the thread sealer makes it so hard to remove later
Thanks for watching.
The old hose looked fine. Why did you replace it?
When the stove is replaced I always change the line to be safe.
You only use pipe sealant on the non-compression threads. Not the compression side!
How tight should I righten it?
.
Idk what your really asking but you don't tory it Don't over tighten!!!
@@I-Agreewithdisrepect Sorry. I meant the gas line to the range. When do I know it is tight enough...or too tight... thanks !!
@@rohitbhatnagar7599 I always go a half rotation after I feel the best tension. Meaning I could tighten a lil more but why ??? Hope this helps
Good video but don't apply sealant on flair fittings
Thanks for watching.
Other people insist that you DON'T put dope on the threads of the flare fitting...
I noticed you didn’t replace the flow valve .... I thought you were supposed to do that every time you replace the flex hose
Great video but I can't budge the fitting to save my life. What do you do you do if it won't budge? Obvioulsy don't want to heat a gas line!
If it is that tight you may want to get longer wrenches because that will give you more leverage.
Seems silly to me one would need a gas fitters license to just unscrew 2 connectors. I have to temporarily need to remove a small gas fireplace and in my local area a license is required to do so. After watching this video I'm pretty sure I can do it.
2:31 I saw natural gas fly
Your not suppose to use sealant on flared fittings. Yes on regular male pipe threads.
Thanks for watching.
Simple rule. If the gas value is perpendicular to the line it's off... Please remember
FYI.. checking for gas leaks .. use windex spray bottle
Thanks for watching
@@getitdonehomerepair Thanks for the video.. expecting my Samsung stove on Sat... They want to charge over $50 to install it.. Not gonna happen!
T TStartx is correct. You do not put sealant on a compression fitting. No if's and's or buts.
Thanks for watching
