-_/_$11 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.
4/8" flare x 3/8" NPT adapter fitting between dryer pipe and 3/8" approved tubing.
I.engths over 20 ft (6.1 m) should use larger tubing and a different size adapter fitting.
If your dryer has been converted to use I.P gas, 4/8" I.P 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 I.P gas must be used. Do not use
TEFI.ON ,_t tape.
Must include a shutoff valve:
In the U.S.A.:
An individual manual shutoff valve must be installed within six (6) feet (1.8 m) of the dryer
in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1.
In Canada:
An individual manual shutoff valve must be installed in accordance with the B149.1,
