Electrical Requirements - Whirlpool W10115228B Instructions D'installation

Option 1 (Recommended Method)
Flexible stainless steel gas connector:
If local codes permit, use a new flexible stainless steel gas
connector (Design Certified by the American Gas Association
or CSA International) to connect your dryer to the rigid gas
supply line. Use an elbow and a 3/8" flare x 3/8" NPT adapter
fitting between the stainless steel gas connector and the
dryer gas pipe, as needed to prevent kinking.
Option 2 (Alternate Method)
Approved aluminum or copper tubing:
Lengths over 20 ft. (6.1 m) can use 3/8" approved tubing
(if codes and gas supplier permit).
If you are using Natural Gas, do not use copper tubing.
3/8" flare x 3/8" NPT adapter fitting between dryer pipe and
3/8" approved tubing.
Lengths over 20 ft. (6.1 m) should use larger tubing and a
different size adapter fitting.
If your dryer has been converted to use LP gas, 3/8" LP
compatible copper tubing can be used. If the total length
of the supply line is more than 20 ft. (6.1 m), use larger pipe.
NOTE: Pipe joint compounds that resist the action of LP
gas must be used. Do not use TEFLON
Dryer gas pipe
The gas pipe that comes out through the rear of your dryer
has a 3/8" male pipe thread.
