    What you didn't mention which would have been nice is what to do about the gas line. Some of us are not professionals so we're not sure what the protocol is. You simply cap it with some kind of a plug or is there another way to secure that so that you can use your other gas appliances?

    • @TheWanderingSteeles
      @TheWanderingSteeles Месяц назад

      Yes, cap it. I found the cap at the local hardware store. I removed my fridge to replace the cooling unit, the new cooling unit came with a way to cap the gas line but I bought a different cap so I could cap the “T” instead of the short gas line. You can take that short gas line to the hardware store to be sure you have the correct fitting for the “T” or the gas line depending on which way you choose to go.

  • @toddmichayluk4902
    @toddmichayluk4902 2 месяца назад

    Your video has a mistake in it. When installing the valve you need to install the valve piece with the rubber o-ring first and then install the retaining ring that you then rotate counter-clockwise to lock into place. The way you had it, the foot petal is the only thing holding the valve in place and the pressure causes the foot petal to pop off like someone else mentioned in the comments.
