      A:  Hi, Zdosse935 - CSST is not to be used for direct underground burial. We suggest you evaluate HOME-FLEX Underground product that may meet your needs better. Check out our CSST manual for details at homeflex.com, and the underground manual at ipexna.com. Or, give Dave a call at (661) 257-3923 x1026 M-F 7a-3:30p Pacific time.

        A:  Hi, Jon - No, not directly. It must be in a watertight, non-metallic conduit (such as a PVC pipe) that is at least 1/2" larger ID than the OD of the CSST.

            Answer This Question

            A:  Hi, Mike - If the stove is movable, no. You must use a certified gas appliance connector. If the stove in not movable (like an in-counter gas cooktop), CSST may be hooked up directly to it.

              Answer This Question

              A:  Hi, Bill - Yes, but the yellow shield will break down over time if is continuously exposed to the elements. Also, you'll want to make sure it's protected against crush for the short time it's likely to be on the ground. You can do that with a run of schedule 40 or 80 pipe.
