This hose is designed for use with standard commercial gas supplies, typically natural gas or LPG. Always verify the compatibility with your specific gas appliance and supply.
Immediately turn off the gas supply at the source. Do not operate any electrical switches or open flames. Ventilate the area. Contact a qualified Gas Safe engineer to inspect the hose and connections for leaks.
Ensure the quick-release coupling is fully engaged. Check that the gas supply valve is open. Verify that the hose is not kinked or damaged. If the problem persists, consult a Gas Safe engineer.
Do not use the hose if you notice any cuts, abrasions, or signs of corrosion. Immediately disconnect the gas supply and replace the hose with a new, approved unit. Installation must be performed by a qualified professional.
Setup: This gas hose is designed for use with commercial gas appliances that accept a 3/4" gas connection. It is crucial that installation is carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer or equivalent qualified professional to ensure all connections are secure and compliant with local regulations. The included wall retainer should be fixed to a solid surface at an appropriate height to support the hose and prevent strain on the connections.
Compatibility: Primarily compatible with natural gas or LPG appliances designed for a 3/4" gas inlet. Always confirm your appliance's gas inlet size and type before installation. It is not suitable for other fuel types.
Care: The wipeable yellow sleeve can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Regularly inspect the hose for any signs of wear, damage, or leaks. Check that the quick-release coupling operates smoothly. Refer to manufacturer guidelines and local safety regulations for the recommended inspection frequency and procedure.
