24" (60 CM) GAS BUILT-IN COOKTOP PRODUCT MODEL NUMBERS WCG52424A GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS Gas supply line: ■■ Provide a gas supply line of 3/4" (1.9 cm) rigid pipe to the cooktop location. A smaller size pipe on longer runs may result in insufficient gas supply. Pipe-joint compounds that resist the action of LP gas must be used. Do not use TEFLON®† tape. With LP gas, piping or tubing size can be 1/2" minimum. Usually, LP gas suppliers determine the size and materials used in the system. Flexible metal appliance connector: ■■ If local codes permit, use a 1/2" or 3/4" I.D. flexible stainless steel tubing gas connector, designed by CSA to connect the cooktop to the rigid gas supply line. ■■ A 3/8" male pipe thread is needed for connection to the female pipe threads of the inlet to the appliance pressure regulator. ■■ Do not kink or damage the flexible metal tubing when moving the cooktop. ■■ Must include a shutoff valve: The supply line must be equipped with a manual shutoff valve. This valve should be located in the same room but external to the cooktop opening, such as an adjacent cabinet. It should be in a location that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access to shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the cooktop.
