I just finished up replacing all of the copper gas piping, thinking that safety is paramount with that. I tested all of the connections and fired all of the gas appliances, all worked. The propane water heater is a blowtorch! I think I will add in an aftermarket 120v element to save on gas when powered at the pedestal.
Inside appliance piping:



Part of the underside connections:

Prior to hooking up the new gas lines, I sprayed the inside of the cast pipe with my Mystery oil/solvent mix and blew everything out of the pipe with compressed air. I don't know how long the pipe was unused so thought a cleanout was apprpriate.
