Re: apisto V1 #802



Yvan,
Don't quote me on this:I had to fix the gas line to our oven because of a leak a year ago.I had an Inspector from our gas supplier in the house to find the leak.He told me that regular white teflon tape resolves when used with gases.You can get the yellow tape at any Home cheapo or Lowes.
I rather be save then sorry.
