Q:is there a 1/2" cts x 1/2" might adapter available ( do they make one?), and what about reducer tees such as 1�1�3_4" or 3/4�3/4�1/2" etc...?
by|May 24, 2023
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  Hi, Steven - Home Flex doesn't make any reducer fittings but you can consider using our conversion fittings to fashion a reduction. Check out part # 18-436-007 (3/4") and 18-436-005 (1/2") and use a 3/4" to 1/2" black iron reducer coupling in between. As for the 1/2" CTS to 1/2" IPS adapter, the item you noted (18-429-101) is the correct part.

    Q:Will 1/2" polyethylene deliver the same volume of propane as 1/2" copper line?
    by|May 9, 2023
    1 Answer
    Answer This Question

    A:  Hi, Hist - All other factors being equal, 1/2" PE will most likely deliver at least (probably more) than 1/2" copper. PE is IPS size; Copper is CTS sizing which is significantly smaller even though they are both called "1/2 inch."

        Q:Does this gas pipe need to be sleeved with pvc pipe?
        by|Apr 19, 2023
        1 Answer
        Answer This Question

        A:  Hi, Gary - No, it doesn't need to be sleeved as it's made specifically for direct burial. It is CSST (corrugated stainless steel tubing which is completely different from Underground product) that must be sleeved if used outdoors/underground.

          Fantastic Bargain
          The kits are a fantastic bargain for the price. You cannot by the components separately for this amount of money. I just finished installing two of these kits on a duplex apartment. Completely satisfied.

          Worked as expected. Bit of a pain to straighten the flex pipe, but we made it work. No leaks between risers or immediately after.

          Response from VPC, Home-Flex ExpertOct 3, 2022
          Hi, Camm - Yep, it can be a bit awkward to work with D2513 poly pipe (no matter the manufacturer). We always suggest the first thing one does is to lay it out in the sun with a heavy object on both ends. It'll soften it up and make it easier to handle. ValenciaPipe

          Easy to assemble, passed propane Co inspection
          Had to replace galvanized pipe pulled it up rented a trencher to go down 18 inches and ran this pipe. Fittings are extremely easy to assembly. Passed leak test first time. Steel jacketed risers are nice.

              Extended gas line for my generator

              worked perfect for a 40' run to outdoor fire pit. No leaks after assembly, pressure test held 5psi for 24 hours. I recommend unraveling the pipe out in the yard for a couple hours before using it so it's easier to work with.

              I returned the item only because I found it in stock at the store. I bought it at the store, and The material served its purpose with no leaks on the couplings at first try. The risers are expensive but look like they are of lasting quality.
