Help With Natural Gas Quick Connector Setup (imgur.com)

submitted 4 days ago by bolbies to c/diy

5 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I’m trying to set up a quick-connect system for my natural gas crawfish boiler and could use some guidance. Here’s my setup:

Gas line on patio: 1/2" female threads
Boiler connection: 3/4" male threads

I want to use quick-connect fittings so I can easily detach the boiler and store it in the garage. My initial thought was:

A 1/2" male quick-connect for the gas line
A 3/4" female quick-connect for the boiler (though I recognize I might need an adapter)
A compatible hose to link them

But I’m struggling to find a straightforward kit or parts that match these sizes. Am I missing something? Are there adapters or specific brands that simplify this?

Thank you!

Are you saying that the male thread in the photo is 3/4 inch? Because you measure the inside diameter to get the size of the pipe.

Okay they just both be 1/2" then. Thank you!
