Q: Can I install a pre-fabricated gas fireplace myself?

• <div><p>DIY installation is not recommended due to the complexities of gas line work and venting; professional installation ensures safety and compliance.</p></div>

Q: What is the best sealant for gas pipes?

• <div><p>The best sealant for gas pipes is usually a pipe joint compound, or pipe dope. It creates a durable, leak-proof seal that is resistant to high pressure and vibrations, and it doesn&rsquo;t break down like tape can. Yellow Teflon tape, or PTFE tape, can also be a good option and is a safe and reliable sealant for gas pipes when you or a pro apply it correctly. </p></div>

Q: What appliances need to be connected to a gas line?

• <div><p>Appliances typically connected to a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-a-gas-line.htm">gas line</a> include <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-should-it-cost-install-gas-stove-home-already-has-gas.htm">gas stoves</a>, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/gas-vs-electric-water-heaters.htm">water heaters</a>, furnaces, and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-convert-wood-fireplace-gas.htm">gas fireplaces</a>. Essentially, any appliance in your home that uses gas needs to be connected to a gas line, which connects your home with the main gas line owned and operated by your gas company.</p></div>

Q: What are the downsides of a gas fireplace?

• <div><p>Some people don&rsquo;t like the look of gas fireplaces since they don&rsquo;t offer the classic charm or appeal of a wood-burning fire. Plus, gas fireplace installation is more expensive than other types of fireplace installations due to the added complexity of working with gas lines. There&rsquo;s also a chance that gas could get into your home, which is a major health and safety risk.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to vent a gas water heater out of the wall or roof?

• <div><p>Venting a gas water heater out of the roof is preferable in most cases. Heated exhaust gases naturally rise, so a vertical vent pipe is efficient. If you&rsquo;re trying to vent through a pipe exiting a wall, the angle of the pipe may be more horizontal than vertical, making the venting system less effective. If you go through a wall, you may need to add a fan to ensure a successful expulsion of the gases outdoors.</p></div>

He fixed the pressure by flipping a few switches on the breaker, like we had done, but for some reason when he did it, it worked. Said, "no charge." I forced him to take some gas money. Gave us the name of a well drill company in case there was something else that needed to be done later....
