Re: Gas pipe connect/disconnect question?

I found this picture on the net and it is probably the setup I want to go with. However, the pipe from the floor is very close to the wall and I may not have any clearance to join the shutoff (I need one that doesn't have giant knot).

What is the requirement to have t-trap/capped extension at the bottom of any vertical rise?

Cut a hole in the drywall if you dont have enough room to spin the valve. (whats a giant knot? the handle?)

Dirt legs (t-trap) are pretty much useless anymore, due to cleaner gas, and more filtering at regulator points. Not needed. I do still install them on higher draw devices, like furnaces and instant water heaters, but again, its not really necessary.
