Gas Line for Blichmann Top Tier

[GundyGang1]

Hey guys,

I am going to be getting a top tier soon and would like to add a gas line going up the stand. I've seen pictures of this, but don't know what are the best materials and what all I would need. Going with 2 burners and would like a ball and needle valve to be on each burner line.

Any help on materials and where to get them?

The needle valve comes with the burner as well as ~3-4 ft of gas line to get from the manifold to the burner. You will need to get a gas ball valve some black iron pipe, and some threaded T connectors to put everything together. Home Depot, Lowes, or really any small hardware store will have what you need.

See the manual here for what comes with it and further instructions on what you'll need.

Thanks!

What's the best way to get the different length of pipe? Will they cut it at those stores?

The lengths are really going to depend on how you want your stand setup, meaning how much distance is going to be between each tier. That said, when I put mine together at Home Depot, they had pre-cut and threaded pieces of pipe in 10, 14, and 18" sections which were just about perfect for piecing everything together.
