    Copper protected from damage if concealed will work well. Silver brazing or flare fittings work well for attachment purposes. NOTE no concealed joints allowed. In other words you cannot make a splice between two pieces of pipe or use any fittings concealed in a wall etc.

    For other more detailed install rules just use the Google search engine for the answers.

    LP gas is very dangerous and I recommend a real professional install. Many times your propane supply company will extend the line for a reasonable price. There are many rules to follow and mandatory leak testing of all new lines.

    Fires and explosions due happen because of faulty installs.
