Proper connection of the gas cooker with your own hands

Self-connection diagram of gas cooker

The photo shows how the devices important for the device are located. And in words it looks like this: from the pipe in the kitchen, which runs from the ceiling in each apartment( called the "riser"), there is a branch called "lowering", which is the place of direct connection of the plate. At the end of the lowering, a crane is placed, from which a rubber hose is attached, or in other words, a gas path.

Rubber allows you to move the device in the direction you need. How to connect the gas stove behind the circuit, you now know, but it is worth learning some nuances of the connection.

Tool for installing a gas cooker with your own hands

1. Tools:

• Keys number 1, adjustable and carob. Screwdrivers and clamps.

Sealants, for example, lockteel or ribbon. Gasket for the hob and wet cloth.

Connecting parts.

• Gas hose.
• Ball hose.

Soap solution for quality control.

How to dismantle an old device?

1. Checking the crane on the lowering, the burners and closing them.
2. Opening the lock nut on the lowering.
3. Clutch adjustment on the lowering. Cleaning it from the old paint. If necessary, you can use the Bulgarian.
4. Moving the old plate from the wall.
5. Unscrewing the drive with a key, if necessary, to change the tap.
6. Place the plug on the faucet for the old appliance.

Connection of lowering to the crane

Occurs by placing a new valve on the pipe lowering so that the gas can not escape. Twisting occurs to the extent that the seal does not stop allowing the crane to spin. Sealing is ensured by the lockteil and the tape. In the event of gas leaks, the action is repeated again.

Fastening of flexible hose

1. Wind the seal on the union.
2. Screwing the union.
3. Check the thread.
4. Install the adapter.
5. Mount the conductor by screwing the flexible hose.
6. Test the operation of the system.

Installing a cylinder in the country house

In order to connect the gas stove in the country, you should prepare a cylinder and a flexible hose. Also, the specificity of this installation is that it is necessary to replace some burners, so that they do not smoke and do not mess up the dishes, and also check the work of the electric ignition, if any. For cottages, a low gas stove is often chosen, but it does not quite cope with the flame and goes out.

With regard to rubber hoses for installation, first of all, it is necessary to check which outlet on the plate and thread. For the thread, an adapter is immediately selected, which can also be included.

Important! Do not buy hoses that were in use, because no one will give you any quality guarantees, and your safety depends on them.

Tips for plugging the plate yourself

You are almost ready to install, but in the end, each installation must take into account such parameters:

1. Only certified hoses with an optimum length of up to 5 m.
2. For the design of the hose, do not use paint. It is much better to use adhesive paper and oilcloth.
3. All components of the pipeline should not be hidden from inspection and if suspected, leaks should be available for inspection.
4. Take care that there are no "additional connections" that could violate the technical conditions. Since it can cause a penalty and cut off the gas supply.

Theoretically, you can actually connect the gas stove on your own, but if the technical work is not your hobby, and there was no firearm before, it may be worthwhile to turn to the masters of the gas service. If, for example, improperly assembled plumbing communications threatens with pipe breakthrough and financial waste, then gas is much more dangerous, and you should not take risks with it.
