2.Prepare incoming gas line and check with local codes regarding use of Teflon tape. Complete gas line installation by connecting incoming gas line with flexible gas line. Secure tightly with wrench. Do not overtighten.
WARNING: All gas piping and connections must be tested for leaks after the installation is completed.
