range location. A smaller size pipe on longer runs may result
in insufficient gas supply. Pipe-joint compounds that resist
the action of LP gas must be used. Do not use TEFLON

Rigid pipe connection:
The rigid pipe connection requires a combination of pipe
fittings to obtain an in-line connection to the range. The rigid
pipe must be level with the range connection. All strains must
be removed from the supply and fuel lines so range will be
level and in line.

Must include a manual shutoff valve:
The supply line must be equipped with a manual shutoff
valve. This valve should be located in the same room but
external to the range. It should be in a location that allows
