Product Description

The SHARKBITE/CASH ACME 20YE52V05148K is a complete gas dryer installation kit designed to connect a residential gas dryer to a natural gas or propane supply line. The kit centers on an epoxy-coated stainless steel flexible gas connector measuring 3/8 inch I.D. by 48 inches in length, equipped with a thermal excess flow valve for added safety. A full assortment of steel fittings and thread sealant is included, making this a single-purchase solution for a complete dryer gas hookup. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians install this kit in new installations and appliance replacements.

This kit is rated for both indoor and outdoor use, making it suitable for dryer installations in garages, utility rooms, laundry closets, and exterior utility spaces. The 48-inch connector length accommodates typical residential dryer setups where the appliance is positioned a moderate distance from the wall supply fitting. The included pipe thread sealant and leak detector support a code-compliant, field-verified installation without requiring additional consumables.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified gas technician in accordance with local codes and IFGC requirements. Shut off the gas supply at the isolation valve before making any connections, and verify the gas is off before applying thread sealant or tightening fittings. Use the included leak detector solution on all connections after restoring gas pressure to confirm a leak-free assembly. Never reuse an old flexible gas connector when replacing an appliance.
