Hi, Could anyone help with this question please?
I have made a new gas locker to fit a 6kg propane bottle, the original gas pipe that feeds to my new cooker is 3/8"
If you look at my drawing i am trying to do this and get a fitting will let me put a shut off valve on the original 3/8 pipe and then onto an 8mm 0r 10mm bulkhead fitting (I have both sizes) and these then have rubber hose to bubble leak detector then again onto the regulator ( marine type)
Any suggestions?
Also was told that all gas compression fittings must be copper olives not brass, but the bubble tester ( from ASAP) has brass olives?
once completed i will also have a pilot gas leak detector on cooker side and at the shut off side fittings.
and will get tested and certified by a gas safe fitter.
Thanks
