The one telling you you need to tear the walls down is correct. You don't have a clog, there's nothing in natural gas that could form a clog in the pipe like that. My first instinct is probably the same as the plumber telling you you'll need to open up the wall. At some point in the past those lines might have been hooked in but they were probably disconnected during a renovation. There's a chance if you have a crawl space or a basement that there's a shutoff going to those lines that's closed but there's zero chance of your problems being a clog. The only way it could be a clog is if whoever originally installed it accidentally left some foreign debris in the pipe. If that was the case then it never would have worked and it would have been found early on.

@@ariea.devalois1564 thank you for your comment. You are absolutely correct. This video is just for entertainment purposes only and just on how to connect to the stub. Please consult a licensed plumber for any suggestions. Thank you 🙏😃

@@WarrenB-c5s Great question, personally it should be completely fine. That quick disconnect cannot let out gas until the line is plugged in. We would still suggest putting one for safety if the quick disconnects fail. In your case, I would shut it off for peace of mind but should no cause any immediate worry, unless the quick disconnect is quite old. I hope this helps and thank you for your comment

@@bbqconceptslasvegas Thanks so much for your quick and detailed reply. I always keep the shutoff valve turned off when not in use, and noticed that it had been turned on by the painter after their work was done and I was reconnecting it to the BBQ. I didn't smell any gas, or hear noise to indicate any leak.. but your answer is peace of mind. Thanks again :)

Thank you for the good video!

@@gotchaplumber we have both those disconnects in stock and also carry both of these with the hoses if needed

@@bbqconceptslasvegas Awesome! ...good to know ... cost?

the gas is not on, you dont see the red handle shut off valve

So why did you say “you can. Hear the gas come out “

You shouldn’t be making this type of content to enable the average Joe to do work they’re not qualified to do and put lives at risk

@@martinwood8690 great comment, we appreciate your feedback. Here in Las Vegas, the gas is regulated at the meeter so the pressure is minimal, again this is for entertainment purposes only and all gas questions should go through a qualified person.

@@kenmsuzukithank you for your comment, the quick discount is suggested for the material used in the manufacturing. It is designed to be outside. You can always use flex line but that definitely limits the mobility of your grill. Most grills now days have a 3/8” pipe into the grill itself. If your grill has a 1/2” inlet, then we would use that. More gas pressure the better, although reducing the size in a small foot run with not see any pressure reduction.

I have been using quick connect gas fittings for 25 years, never had one fail for any reason. So i think they’re safe

Great question, you would need the nipple if you have a female quick disconnect and a female reducer.
