How much straight pipe do I need to attach these? I know you have to cut 6 inches, but I assume you need another ~3 inches on each side to attach?

About 1 1/4" or less. Cutting 6" out of pipe will allow about 1 1/4" per end to slide into the "Y" pipe. Best bet is to weld the "Y" pipe onto your exhaust pipe.

I have about 5 inches of pipe after my header collector but before the Y pipe that comes with the cutout. You could get away with a little less. The Y pipe is a total length of around 6 inches, you could just cut out a 6 inch section like its a normal exhaust pipe.

I've got over 600.00 in mind with installation and they still don't work I've had them repaired three times sent back I had a new set given to me by Amazon and it had two sets after that repaired by the company and they still don't work The last time I saw them back they were three times that are open and shut them and they quit I'm so disappointed in those I thought by purchasing that brand and the cost of them that would be a good product but they're not very very disappointed

I suggest you measure the diameter of the rods, buy new ones the required length at any hardware store and then attach them to the provided mounts. We had to cut our rods, it is fairly easy with a basic plumbers pipe cutting tool.

You can purchase a reducer coupling from Lowes. I when fom 8" down to 6" I also use a 6" tee so I can install two intake.

To be sure go buy a one inch male pipe thread coupling. It has the male on both ends looks tapered (large in middle gets smaller on the tips) hold it up to the one going into yours. 3/4 and 1" are pretty different look at both at the store maybe even get both you can return them. You will know right away.

At our altitude (6,350 ft) we needed 3/4 inch pipe. You need to buy the fittings and chimney pipe. Your installer should be able to help you.

You can add pipe to the depth you need. I would not want to extend the handles.

I would not advise cutting this. There are several lengths available. You shouldn't need to cut it - it wraps around the pipe.

I would go to hardware store and get a couple stainless steal couplers, and some all thread of the appropriate dimensions. Make an extension the exact length you want/need?

Some of these products have a pic of the back of the package which shows a chart of pipe size/length to heat tape length needed. 6' is right on the edge between 6' and 9' tapes due to wrapping. I'd buy 9' to do 6' of pipe.

I didn't do the installation myself, but I believe it is standard (?3/4 inch). I use a similar length of pipe in my installation. Check the Owner's instruction manual (available online), I suspect it may have that information.

I guess you could do this with a coupler, but I would not do this as this could be a breaking point. I would look for a 8' rod and if you can't fine one that Hunter makes, then you might be able to use threaded pipe.

I couldn't find any. It is fairly simple, but mine didn't exactly fit. I didn't use the second pipe

I used a 3/16" round file (I think they are called rat tail). The instructions show the angles that you need to maintain in order to get each surface as sharp as possible. In all honesty, I feel that the chain is inferior and needs a new one, but you may have better luck.

Ellen, I installed 2 6' black iron pipes on my deck where the front of the awning ends. I attached them to the deck with flanges and put a PVC T on the top. I added industrial strength velcro on the T and the front of the Awning. I also have 7 mounts holding the awning at it's anchor point. The tubing they made this unit with is sub standard for the weight it has to hold. If I could upload a picture for you I would but don't see anywhere here to do so. motorhogman at yahoo if you want to email me and I'll send you some pics of my modifications.

I Agree. I used plastic plumbers strap, cut in 1"-1 1/4" pieces and then cut in half lengthwise fasted with small tacks. Stick it up, then nail a strap across the 'splice' area every 15 to 18 inches. They have stayed fine for 2 months so far. I'll try a dot of super glue if I get any sags, but I know for sure they're coming off.

The pipe is a separate purchase - from your local plumbers merchant. Ask for 3/4 inch gas barrel and cut it to the lengths you require. You will need a 3/4 inch BSP (British Standard Gas) thread die to cut the threads on one end of each length of pipe you have cut. You could ask a friendly gas fitter to thread them for you. I hope this helps. Feel free to contact me if you wish to. Good luck, Jack Cluer.

From input to output on unit is 5in, after installing pipe fittings, you would need to cut out 6 1/8in for it to fit.
