Connecting a GasStop shutoff valve
We are thinking of buying one of these, partly for safety purposes but also so we have an idea of when the gas is running out.

Our gas connection in the locker looks like this:
The end hanging down is the connector we usually attach to the gas bottle. Does the GasStop screw into the end of that connector and then we screw the GasStop directly into the gas bottle?

It’s gas so if in doubt, don’t touch it. I suggest you get someone competent to do this for you. I don’t mean to be nasty but if you don’t understand the fittings, you really shouldn’t tinker for the safety of everyone.

I think that’s a wise move👍🏻. It doesn’t pay to mess with gas.

@netcam For years I used a similar device except mine was made by Gaslow. It should be a perfectly easy DIY job as all you are doing is fitting it inline between the cylinder and the pigtail from the regulator. The fitting into the cylinder and the pigtail into the device are the same so I can't see if you can fit one that you can't fit the other?

@netcam The only time you have to remove it is when you change the gas bottle for new one. You might want to look at the Gaslow model as the do one that attaches to the regulator so no need to disturb when you change a gas bottle.
