Thread: FLEX GAS LINE MANIFOLD IN CHICAGO

Hi all;
This is my first thread as a full member.I do inspections in the Chicago Area. I came across a natural gas manifold with five flex yellow stainless steel feeds for the furnace,hot water heater,stove and fire place .Several of the flex lines exceeded 20 feet. each line had a gate valve shut off. The installation was in a 4 yr old 30 unit condo

Has any one come across an installation like this in Chicago? Is it proper.

Thanks

Jory Lannes

That is CSST with a manifold. Works fine in other parts of the country but sense Chicago does not even allow for NM wire, I have a suspicion that they might have an issue with CSST. Don't know for sure, but just guessing!
