Well now there you go! Between Jeff's and Charles' CA qualified answers, the OP can now comment with confidence that his report (on this subject) is solid.

Thanks guys!

Jeffrey,

Sarcasm ? Really?

Mr. Pope and I answered David's question plain and simple and you seem to have a problem with that? Is it our faults that there are different building codes in place and in use across this country we live and inspect in? What works in your neck of the woods may not work in ours and you get all huffy about it.

Mr Pope has earned his respect.

Quit being petty and get back to the real reason this board is here...to help others

Dude, you really need to chill out! I graciously thanked you for your reply, along with Jeff's (another long term, extremely knowledgeable inspector). Take it as it was intended, and stop reading things into everything someone says.

(BTW... Don't expect a reply to your childish PM. It was deleted).

The gas line is acceptable as already stated.

Where are the doors that a gas f/p should have

OK, as long as the CSST does not run through a wall/floor.

IMO, especially gas only fireplaces, lack of safety screens should be written up.

As I said in post #15, this is not considered CSST.

The fact is, CSST is allowed to run through walls and floors. Appliance connectors, however, are not allowed to pass through walls or floors.
