Nice job. Love the live connection. Quick easy and safe. Those criticizing have no idea about gas
My dude. Nice job. Gas scares me and this made it look easy and safe
Would you recommend a quick disconnect fitting even if connecting to a build-in grill that won't be moving?
Is there any benefit to _not_ reducing to 3/8 and supplying more gas to the grill? I don't even know if that's an option but I'm curious.
Thanks for the video. There are quite a few videos on running a line out to your grill but this was helpful for the last segment to the grill.
@@kenmsuzukithank you for your comment, the quick discount is suggested for the material used in the manufacturing. It is designed to be outside. You can always use flex line but that definitely limits the mobility of your grill.
Most grills now days have a 3/8” pipe into the grill itself. If your grill has a 1/2” inlet, then we would use that. More gas pressure the better, although reducing the size in a small foot run with not see any pressure reduction.
Good place to buy 1/2"×3/8" quick disconnect?
Thank you for the good video!
@@gotchaplumber we have both those disconnects in stock and also carry both of these with the hoses if needed
@@bbqconceptslasvegas Awesome! ...good to know ... cost?
I see on Webers website they recommended to have nipples between the reducer and the quick connect. Is that true or is what you did fine?
Great question, you would need the nipple if you have a female quick disconnect and a female reducer.
i'd put a shut off valve

quick connect couplings or the hose they are attached to can fail without warning for many reasons.
care must be taken to ensure that quick connect couplings are either compatible with or protected from the environment (that is, surrounding conditions) to which they are exposed. environmental conditions including but not limited to ultraviolet radiation, ozone, moisture, water, salt water, chemicals, and air pollutants can cause degradation and premature failure
*nice video*
I have been using quick connect gas fittings for 25 years, never had one fail for any reason. So i think they’re safe
Dumb (noob) question. If there was no shutoff in this tutorial, then I believe that your video answers this. When there is no shutoff valve, or there is one and it's left open.. and the gas line terminates with a quick disconnect that isn't connected to any hose. Does the quick disconnect prevent the flow of gas? Or does the pipe leak gas in an unrestricted manner? The reason I ask is that a house painter disconnected my BBQ's hose from its quick disconnect on the house (perfectly OK) and then turned the gas shutoff valve to its open position (no idea why), and it was left this way for several days.
@@user-xx2ei6jh1g Great question, personally it should be completely fine. That quick disconnect cannot let out gas until the line is plugged in. We would still suggest putting one for safety if the quick disconnects fail. In your case, I would shut it off for peace of mind but should no cause any immediate worry, unless the quick disconnect is quite old.
I hope this helps and thank you for your comment
@@bbqconceptslasvegas Thanks so much for your quick and detailed reply. I always keep the shutoff valve turned off when not in use, and noticed that it had been turned on by the painter after their work was done and I was reconnecting it to the BBQ. I didn't smell any gas, or hear noise to indicate any leak.. but your answer is peace of mind. Thanks again :)
Jesus swapping gas fittings whilst the gas is on
You’d loose your licence if you did that in the uk
And surly that fitting should be angled to point downward so it stays clean and is less likely to get knocked off by the grill when it’s being moved about
the gas is not on, you dont see the red handle shut off valve
So why did you say “you can. Hear the gas come out “
You shouldn’t be making this type of content to enable the average Joe to do work they’re not qualified to do and put lives at risk
@@martinwood8690 great comment, we appreciate your feedback. Here in Las Vegas, the gas is regulated at the meeter so the pressure is minimal, again this is for entertainment purposes only and all gas questions should go through a qualified person.
