A natural gas grill line replaces propane tanks with a permanent hookup, and it is a job for a licensed pro. The line, the shutoff, and the connection follow strict rules because it is gas.
The line
A permanent gas line runs from the house's gas supply to the grill location, sized for the grill's BTU rating and the distance.
The shutoff
A dedicated shutoff valve at the grill lets you disconnect it safely, and the valve must be accessible.
The connection
The grill connects with a flexible appliance connector, not rigid pipe, and the whole run is leak-tested with a soap test. hard water is common across the region, and older neighborhoods still have galvanized supply lines In Charlotte, a permit and inspection are typical.
The caution
Never DIY a gas line — a leak is invisible and serious. Only a licensed pro should cut, thread, and test the gas piping.
