Great job Steve, I bet the homeowner's are happy they switched from electric to gas, much better !
Great job Steve. That was a nice stove. You did a Clean install on it.
good video Steve. we basically use the same setup when cutting more than a few runs of gas line. we got an older rigid motorized pipe threader/cutter that weighs about 175 lb's. what a bastard to load and unload. cuts and threads like butter tho.
Your pilot hole at :48 didn't leave enough wood for the threaded tip on the auger to bite so naturally it wasn't going to pull the bit through which is the main reason for liking auger bits. Back seat driving is easy but it didn't look like you caught what was happening. Everything else was very nice work!
I'm glad you pointed that out. I was thinking the same thing.
Quality installation Steven!!! The weather is getting better in our neighborhood! I could take "75 and dry" 365 days a year!!!
I love that reamer! Adult size! You do beautiful work, experience shows.
That is one clear camera picture of the bird at the end of the video ! Great quality camera.
That was a nice stove. Good job. Thanks for the video.
great Vid, quick question are you required in your state to make a drip pocket before each appliance? Annnnd, what type of Fritz do you use what gives it the blue look? Thx.....B
That's a nice fancy stove. Never seen one like that.
Now you just need to adjust the burners by taking each knob off and using a small Flathead screwdriver and setting each one to the right mix.
It also would have been great if you could have shown us the install of the black iron pipes, heck a montage would have been great as well.
I hope you have learned more and that your videos have gotten better, You really have a good thing going here.
Very nice job, and a nice gas range as well (I have the same one)
I just put i lg mini split in April, I love it! Ducted for the upstairs bedrooms and non ducted for the lower 2 levels, so a 3 zone heat/ac system as well as my standard boiler heat. I wish I put it on the wall though instead of on the ground, didn't think of it at the time cuz it came with a base, now I gotta keep an eye on the snow around it.
Been there done that.
I sure would have liked to watch you actually install those pipes and do that tee.
Exactly...was the down pipe to the water heater cut...how did he get the elbow off?
@@westvalley411 Break the union at the water heater, then un-thread the pipe out of the 90, install the tee, reinstall the pipe, reinstall the union, then work your way off the new tee.
Exactly
Steve, are you O.Q qualified to work on the D.O.T. side of the meter? Do you check the reg vent after turning the riser valve back on? Those old s254's are known to weep afterwards. You should probably say something about Johnny homeowner not touching those lockwings because they can blow the reg or sometimes snap that brass barrel. Might be 60lbs in that line.
You sound like the Godfather... lol! Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Wednesday... Nice work!
Nice stove, good job Steve.
Really good job! Hard to find people like you.
What about the excess gas that is still in the lines? Does it need bled?
Nice work. Clean install.
I have a question about the diameter of the outlet on the meter. It is currently 1" diameter. I will have somewhere about 90' of pipe from the meter to the furthest appliance. So I would like to attach a 1.5" pipe to the meter. Can you install a 1.5" diameter outlet on the gas meter with 1" outlet? From my understanding, attaching 1.5" pipe to the 1" outlet on the meter would create a bottle neck right there? Thanks
hi good job i have question before energize main valve is there any test
Nice work....would be good to see how a leak shows up...another video?
That was a nice looking stove.
Hey Steve, it probably wouldn't be a bad idea to check to see if the gas range is adjusted properly, sometimes the new ranges aren't adjusted quite right for the gas pressure in the building and it can cause excess CO.
How did you bleed the gas down?
great video. if you can remember how far were you from the meter when you installed the 3/4" to 1/2" tee?
Interestingly, on Sunday I had to run gas pipe in the basement of the house that my boy just bought. He needed help carrying his washer and dryer down the steps. Then he asked me if I would hook up his dryer. One look at what was there and I said No Way. Nothing but one 15' long chunk of 3/8" copper tubing coming off a tee where the stove hooked up. The compression fitting where the tubing connected to the tee fell right out the moment I loosened the nut. It now has 1/2" black pipe running to the dryer with a good flex pipe for gas, as it should be. I don't know how that house didn't blow up on the previous owner, the compression fitting was sealing nothing.
Recently added a 1/2” line for a stove for a friend. After I installed it, the pilot light kept going out on the water heater after a day or two of running. Thermocouple is fine, cleaned the burners etc. 1” main coming in, t’d off for the 1/2” stove line, and water heater line is 1/2”. Do I need to bump up the line that feeds the water heater to 3/4?
what about the regulator for the new stove? don’t need one
Great Vid, Sounds like you're from Boston area, I thought I would see that sea-gull at the end turn to feathers .
Great job like all ways
Hi i need to do a gas line from the meter on my sidewalk to the inside of the basement. Please let me know how can i do it myself...or i need a professional
Knowledgeable Video. Thanks a lot!!!!!!
Ima li snimak kako seku pocinkovanu ili cev za gas testerom od 1 /2 " da je cev od 6 metara
The emergency control valve does not have a handle? What if there is a gas leak?
I am new Subscriber. Can you do a coffee chat on how you got into the business? Did you go to school for Plumbing and HVAC ? You sure know a lot. I like your videos.
Nice install, Steve. Got that same stove this summer, except it's white. Good stove.
hi. why do you don't use welding for gas piping ?
nice work Steve.
Excellent work Steve.
are u using a phone cam ?? amazing picture quality for a phone I think
How come you don't use copper for gas? In the UK it's used (although there are some old galv pipes still in use).
Can you use the test dial on the meter to test for leaks?
nice stove
Very nice work! This job is a pleasure to look at, as hook ups for appliances in my part of Canada are either done in soft copper or this jacketed flexible stainless shit they have out now..
How much did you charge for that install? Looks like it took a bit threading your own pipe... gotta imagine its cheaper even with the time rather than buying pre-threaded? Nice video
Great job
Steve , I know it's old video what is the name of special gas leak detector you use in this job ?
SOAPY WATER lol
Is your tool Ridgid ?
Hi.Were are you form?
well done, how much does that pipe threader you got cost? is there any cheaper methods to make thread for that gauge pipe?
Go to Lowe's or Home depot they got the thread machine and black pipe , they will cut it and thread it free for you.
Would you consider using a union In case there was a leak? You could work way back easier.
Great work, as usual, Steve. Heard Baby barking in the background.
she was protecting the truck
Not a plumber but i have done a lot of piping industrial in the plants, question is,,, how come no union or unions installed in case of a leak you might have had while making all the joints up? Just curious, good job BTW.
Richard
I have a dumb question. When you shut off the gas, isn't there still residual gas left in the lines in your house (to the water heater and furnace)? If you cut into the pipe to install a new line, aren't you draining the gas into your house?
You can leave the pilot on on the water heater and it will burn off most of the residual gas. Even without doing so there is no danger since there is only very little gas in the lines. But it will smell somewhat.
Great question
Good stuff, Steve ! Thumbs up.
Good job
great video!
Your augur bit is shot, haha
Oak flooring is very hard, especially when it looks like the drill is in reverse, lol.
Or the bit is dull as shit
Ima li snimak kako seku pocinkovanu ili cev za gas testerom od 1 /2 " da je cev od 6 metara. Samo sečenje ručnom testerom
gr8 video.what about the strapping of gas line?
No bubbles no troubles Mamma
you a bad man you know what your doing hands down
hi steve in america do not have to do a tightness test,gas rate, purge and relight and check working pressure when installing a new appliance. its a must the uk.
It's interesting to see how things are done. I like their anti-tip brackets, much more discreet and simpler than a chain.
I was thinking the same thing testing the installation before starting think our rules must be more strict like the use of iron pipe in domestic less chance of the diyer having a go.
home depot and lowes will cut and thread pipe for diyers.
here in nyc any new piping has to be pressure tested with 3lbs of air and must hold it for 3hrs, and being he shut the MCV (meter control valve) he would have to pressure test the entire interior piping. here in NYC the utility are the only ones allowed to shut a MCV or a HOS (head of service Valve). so many unsafe practices here in this video
Very informative. After the gas is turned back on what is your procedure for the water heater and furnace as far as relighting or the pilot? Do you turn off the valve to each one prior to turning off the main valve to the house ?
Not sure what he does but any gas valve with a pilot should automatically shut off when the pilot goes out and will remain off even when you turn the gas back on until you manually re-light the pilot like he did for the water heater in the video. There is a thermocouple or thermopile to detect if the pilot is lit and the valve will only operate if this works, as a safety feature.
Easiest way getting that T installed? Splitting that line?
Overall, good job. First wipe off the excess pipe dope. It could conceal a leak. Leak test only a section at a time. By time you check out all the joints the bubbles could be done.
Use a flashlight and don’t forget to check in the back of the fittings.
DONALD1951 I don’t think needs any advice on how to do his job.
Nice work Steve !!!!
whats your opinion on LG mini splits? do you recommend compared to other brands?
I hate setting stoves they can be such a pain in the ass . I see you didn't video sliding the stove in place lol. I don't care how many I do I always have a hard time getting everything lined up right. Good job though.
another great job!!
Might be time for a new pair of kicks my man!
Great video brother. Just what I needed to see! 👍✌
Mr. Steven, How long did that take you to install? I always wonder how long things like that takes.
What kind of pipe dope is that
Not sure if you know but that reg on the gas meter doesn’t seem like the best place to be installed... should have some more clearance below the vent in my opinion. Not sure if it’s even in line with code in your area..
Daniel Velazquez it comes that way from the gas company.
Nice job Steve I could of done it better but nice job
What would it cost roughly to have a gas line shut off valve for a gas stove I presently have only a cap on it coming out of wall
surely you checked by now but i put in a 1/2 inch ball valve(about8$) 1/2 in appliance connector 4ft (about 22$)
zaggaona ok thx
Great Job!
Anyone have a ball park estimate for a service like this ?
Shouldn't you have ran 1 inch up to the T where it goes down to the water heater? then you could have ran 3/4 to the stove.
Hey there Steven, great video, thanks for sharing! I do have a question, if you don't mind...is a regulator required? Or are they usually built in to the stoves?
Built in.
its the boxy thing the flex line is attached to at 11:59
Thanks guys. My comment was a blast from the past; I had to rewatch the video to see what it was about, then figure out which house I was living in at the time. Seems I ran a gas line for a new gas stove I put in at my home. I've installed another 3 gas stoves since then.
Sorry to bother y'all but can we use the yellow tube/yellow RECTORSEAL Pipe Thread Sealant that has the red 5 on the label or do we need your white paste/brush stuff? Running black iron pipe/nat gas to new stove location in our kitchen remodel.
I did a test run today with a go pro I'm gonna try to put it up would you watch it
to much movement my eyes were bugging out of my head .. had to stop watching it .
Steve is the master of video production
Yo Steve. U should really buy some new shoes or nice boots. Them shredded old prison shoes and Kmart socks need a re-vamp pronto. Love your vids other than that
What's the other way ??
Thanks for sharing.
Nice job!
How much was $ that?
Sorry that was yesterday im uploaded one from the job site today. It should be done in a few minutes
yeah that's the baby mama!!!!
i try to get her in the videos
Special leak detector
7:48 Pressure tests always make me anxious.
Haha the whites socks
3/4 drop on a water heater ? it's a pv50
Hey Steve nice job you could've used a manometer in and done a lot quicker though
Bad cough at 3:47, do you have pneumonia? Don't worry, a quick rest and you'll be fine in 2 hours. lol
i am fine
So no motorcade to pick you up? lol. Trump 2016
we got a leaker mama
You don't spray like that, you want a nice stream so when it on the pipe there are no bubbles, you want bubbles to come up where there are leaks. Open your choke on your spray bottle
Isn't their a gas detection device you can use. I'm scared of the gas mama... 😯
Yes when u farta
