Heatalator LP Fireplace

The person who "was" going to do the final connection on our LP fireplace has not shown up, does anyone know of someone in the Rosarito area that can do this?

I don't know why a propane connection would be hard for any Rosarito plumber to do. We don't have all those pesky safety laws for gas connections like stateside. I installed a propane log-lighter for my fireplace. It just has a brass knob to turn on and off the gas flow. Simple. Why make it any harder?

The lengthy instructions, make it all sound very complex, electronic ignitor and so forth, maybe we are just being over cautious with it.

Even if the install instructions are in Spanish the local installer won't bother to read them. They install mini-volt on-demand water heaters all the time. No big deal.

No lawyers and lawsuits makes for easier installations. One advantage of building in the third world.
