Look if you want one on your deck then pay a little more for a listed unit
and have it installed by a licensed gas fitter.


Could you explain this more please? What, exactly, is a gas fitter to do
for a proplane grill installation?

First, you read the instructions. You wheel it up on the deck, you connect
the tank, check for leaks, you fire it up. I'm j ust now sure what the gas
fitter's job is here that I should pay $100 to have one come out.

Since you are stuck on the idea that portable propane grills that are
intended to be used outdoors away from structures are the only type of
propane grill in existence the answer is no. I can't explain to you why
you might want a gas fitter to pipe a remote gas supply to a listed
residential cooking appliance that happens to be a grill fired by
propane. Just because you are not familiar with any other type then the
portable variety doesn't mean that no other type exists.
