Gas hoses
Gas hoses are essential connections for safe, reliable operation of your commercial cooking and heating equipment. Whether you're installing a new range, fryer, or boiler, or replacing worn tubing, you need hoses that meet strict safety standards and handle the pressures of a busy kitchen.
Our stock includes BS 669-2 certified commercial-grade hoses in standard sizes, ready to ship across Ireland and the EU.
Commercial-grade gas hoses for connecting appliances to mains or bottled gas supplies. Essential for kitchens running gas cookers, ranges, fryers and griddles. Sizing (1/2" or 3/4") and length determine fit; BS 669-2 certification ensures safety compliance for professional use.
When selecting a gas hose, verify the bore size (typically 1/2" or 3/4") to match your equipment inlet, and confirm the working pressure rating suits your appliance specifications. Commercial kitchens benefit from replacing hoses every 5–10 years, or sooner if you notice kinks, cracks, or leaks.
All hoses must comply with BS 669-2 and be installed by a qualified gas engineer. Keep spare certified hoses on hand to minimise downtime during maintenance or emergency replacement.
- Check your equipment's bore size and pressure rating before ordering
- Ensure hose length allows safe routing without strain or kinks
- Verify BS 669-2 certification for compliance and insurance
- Plan regular inspection and replacement as part of safety maintenance
