Re: Gas lines and DIY said by Ken:When I was done that 40' run across the ceiling was 3" shorter than before because of how much more I tightened the connections. That's great ! How many joints ? I mean, between "snug" tight and properly tight is what, less than a 1/4" of thread ? Those must have been really, really loose !  |

Markle, IN | There were 4 couplers, a union, and 2 elbows. So 12 threaded connections on the horizontal run total and if each one goes in a 1/4" farther that's exactly 3". I'm just guessing mine was about 3" shorter, I didn't actually measure it. |
