Default Gas oven - flexible gas pipe NOT allowed!

On or around Sat, 12 Nov 2005 21:47:59 +0000 (UTC), "John"
mused:

IIRC solid piping was required for some commercial catering equipment
to
prevent things being moved out from under flue hoods where applicable.

I'd have thought that screwing it to the floor would have been a better
solution.

What about things not sitting on a floor?

They must be fitted to something, I haven't seen a levitating cooking
appliance yet, domestic or commercial.


Immediately to mind I have seen water boilers and freestanding grills
positioned on top of stainless steel catering kitchen furniture (table type
worktops) with a vent hood above and piped in rigid pipe so no-one could
slide them around and end up not under the hood. Just because you haven't
seen it doesn't mean it isn't so:-)

Then it is attached to something then isn't it. Just because it isn't
on the floor doesn't mean it can't be fixed down.

Also, I can't believe that anyone would connect a rigid supply pipe to
a non-fixed piece of equipment.

This thread is getting dafter by the minute.
