Have an inspector that is requiring us to wrap the outside of of our gas fittings anyone know with what type?

Question

of wrap

Answer 1

Have you tried "Teflon Tape"? Or perhaps "Denzo"?

Answer 2

are you talking about the threads, or is your gas line underground then you need to buy the plastic coated pipe and wrap it in 10 mil tape

Answer 3

im guessing u need the poly pipe that raps the pipes.

  go to walmart or lowes,  they sell it in 1/2  3/4 or  1in dia

  cost around $2 a  stick ....   its self sticks.  

    can be used on  a/c  copper pipes

Answer 4

Don't know why they would want them wrapped unless

1. They are in a corrosive location

2. They are running through a cold area like outside in winter which could condense moisture in low spots inside the gas pipe.

In any event... Inspectors are a strange lot.

Some stick to the letter and this is good for everyone usually. It could be a moisture barrier or an insulating value or both he is looking for..

best bet..... humbly ask his advice as to what best would suit your needs.
