Talk about no two Dandys being the same. I've only ever knowingly seen the pipe that comes out from beneath the floor being for a heater. So the connection on Daylan is foreign to me then I was shocked it is the same on a much newer unit such as naver's.
So I have two Designers with the floor based pipe:
The unit I bought this year has a non standard kitchen. The heater is unswitched (it has no tap) and there are two gas taps on the floor (these are non standard) one for the stove. the other possibly for a fridge?
My original Designer just has a line of flexible tube from the regulator that is T pieced to two tubes. One for the heater and one for the stove. Obviously both items need to be connected otherwise the gas would just flow from the unsealed tube.
I ran two gas fridges and a gas freezer through a one into 4 pipe with 4 valves. I bought this from TVS for a fiver. They may have had a rethink on Conway component prices but they will still be cheap. Don't know how true it is but I heard a story of how they ended up buying Conways stock and it was for next to nothing.
