Re: Long rubber propane lines okay?

way too big. 5/8" id. I see that Parker makes 1/4" id hose, but I seem to be unable to connect with any of their distributors as listed in their links. Will keep trying, at least until I can get a...

Re: Long rubber propane lines okay?

I wish. I called them and asked for CSST and they didn't know what I was talking about. He kept saying "Yellow Hose, yellow hose, everybody uses it here. " So I asked how much for 100 ft. and he...

Re: Long rubber propane lines okay?

Don't take this wrong, but no, they don't. Not here. They sent me to the guy who wants to sell me plastic vinyl hose. There are NO regulations here about hooking up LP gas. You can use whatever...

Thanks for trident link I'll try that,too. I plan to replace every single piece of tubing with the hose. My copper tubing is following the departed holding tank. And the old boat keeps getting a...

Re: Long rubber propane lines okay?

It's already installed. We don't even have heating in our house here. Nor glass in the windows. BUT a trip up to the Abacos is probably in the cards within the next year or so. And it would...

Re: Long rubber propane lines okay?
