As mentioned in the title I moved and took my Phill and installed it at my new home. I ran the gas line (and soon will finish the electrical) myself. I had a couple of questions before having the city's friendly inspector come check everything out. The install was pretty simple using all black pipe and gas rated pipe dope, I cut the 1" main in the attic and using a black union tee'd off and reduced to 1/2" then ran about 35' of pipe through a wall into the garage over the garage door and down to the Phill. Tested for leaks with soapy water and everything checked out ok. The pipe was braced on every rafter in the garage and at both walls where it touches and in the attic.
Is there anything special I need to do for the section of pipe coming from the attic through the garage wall? Right now I just punched it through the drywall with a hole just big enough to fit the 1/2 pipe through. Anything else I should double-check before ordering a inspection (I am located in southern CA)?
Thanks,
Loran
