fitting new lpg gas hob

[adventcarpenter99]

Hello, What's the correct set up for a new lpg gas hob ?
the old one has a red regulator and rubber pipe through the wall to the hob.
the pipe is perished so needs replacing, is it best done in copper pipe ?
what size ?
what spec regulator?
dose it need a gas cock ?
thanks

But you aren't, or you wouldn't be asking the questions you have.

May be you should go to those places that don't exist and sit down and have a long think about it all

maybe you should pick up the phone and get someone competent to do the work before you do yourself some harm. LPG is very dangerous more so than natural gas. I get pretty pi55ed off even when NG engineers work on it let alone DIY numpties

If you was competent you would know for a start that rubber isn't allowed through a wall without asking if it might be better in copper, as said, log is far more dangerous than nat gas and installation requires somebody who knows what they are doing.

Also as the hob is most likely supplied in nat gas how are you going to convert it ?
