Help with some gas connections - Outdoor
Alright. I'm frustrated. Went to Home Depot, Lowes and Ace hardware. None of them had the combination I need.

Anyone got a Amazon link to what I need here?

The issue: I've had a Natural gas fire pit on the back patio. Wife ordered a new one that came with the new furniture. It's set up for propane. But I've got natural gas line already staked and ran.

Removed the LP connectors and changed the orifice. BUT: The male connector on the firepit is 1/4. I've got what I'm %99 sure coming out of the ground is 15/16 female connector. I need a outdoor gas line & adapter to mate the two together. Anyone got any suggestions?

I'm done traveling between DIY stores. Help me SigForum!!

Short Version: I need a out door rated flexible gas line and a way to mate my 15/16 gas line to a fire pit with a 1/4 male connector. HELP!

I’m a little unsure of exactly what you want but would something like this work?

In the past I’ve had good luck just taking the two fittings I have and bringing them to a place like Ace Hardware and asking them to make the connection.

You could also go the a Fergusons if you have one near you as they deal primarily with the Pros and should have any part necessary.

So that's close. 12 feet is a bit much. 3 feet would be plenty. That's got a male flared 1/4 fitting.

The fireplace has a 1/4 male fitting on it. So I need adapters for:
1) mating the 15/16 gas line to whatever hose I use.
2) taking the gas line down to 1/4 male on the fireplace.
