Natural Gas Installation
Water and Drainage Installation
You do not need to hire a contractor to install your natural gas service, but you need to make sure you have
all required permits and ensure the installation complies with State and local code. We recommend you hire a
certied contractor if you do not wish to do the installation yourself.
If your dealer is not a certied contractor, you will need to hire a contractor for installation of your gas service.
The natural gas pipe from your house to the location of your barbecue island needs to be ¾” and terminate with
a shut-off valve with a ½” male tting. Check with a contractor or your local inspector for requirements.
Garden hose -- This is by far the easiest way of
getting water to your barbecue island. You have two
options:
• You can bring the hose through the front access
door and attach it underneath the sink when
you need it, or
• You can bury the length of the hose and bring
it up beneath the barbecue island in the same
manner as the gas and electrical stub-ups. Once
you connect it to your sink, you won’t need to
remove it.
½” cold water pipe -- Plumb a single ½” cold water
pipe from your house plumbing to a stub-up beneath
the sink.
Hot water plumbing -- You have many options for
plumbing your sink for hot water, including tapping
from your house’s hot water tank, installing a
tankless point-of-use water heater, and installing a
solar water heater. Consider several factors to nd
a solution that best addresses your needs, including
your water consumption, electrical power supply,
and drainage. A contractor can help you with this.
Five gallon bucket -- Place a ve gallon bucket beneath
the sink drain. This solution has the advantage of
being inexpensive and the least trouble to maintain for
winterizing your barbecue island.
Drain to your garden -- if your yard is on a slope, you
can take advantage of this feature by draining sink
water to a place in your garden where you can re-use
the water.
Gray water drain -- Installing a line to drain to your
house’s gray water drainage may incur some cost and
labor, but it may be your best solution if you plan to
locate your barbecue island in its place permanently.
Water Sources Drainage
If you have a sink or ice maker installed, there are several ways you can provide water and drainage to your
barbecue island. A contractor can help you decide on the best solution for your needs. You are responsible for
ensuring all plumbing and drainage complies with State and local codes.
