³⁄₈" approved aluminum or copper tubing is acceptable for lengths under 20 ft (6.1 m) if local codes and gas supplier permit.

If you are using Natural gas, do not use copper tubing.

Lengths over 20 ft (6.1 m) should use larger tubing and a different size adapter fitting.

If your dryer has been converted to use LP gas, ³⁄₈" LP compatible copper tubing can be used. If the total length of the supply line is more than 20 ft (6.1 m), use larger pipe.

NOTE: Pipe-joint compounds that resist the action of LP gas must be used. Do not use TEFLON®† tape.

Must include a shutoff valve:

An individual shutoff valve must be installed within 6 feet

(1.8 m) of the dryer in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1. The location should be easy to reach for opening and closing.
