Hello all. Newbie here. I have a quick question a gas line hook up to a residential kitchen: The gas fitting behind our stove looks like a 1/2" but the inlet fitting on the back of the stove is 3/4" inch. Would using a flex line gas hose with a 1/2" inch fitting on one side (the wall) going to a 3/4" inch fitting on the stove cause any issues? Does this set-up reduce the stoves operating ability? Would it be better to use a 1/2" diameter inch gas flex line with a step up/adapter to a 3/4" inch connection(to mate with the stove) be better to use? Or would it be better to use a 3/4" inch diameter gas flex line with a reducer/step-down to 1/2" inch? Or does it even matter? I hope someone here can help with an answer. Let me say thanks in advance to all who offer help & advice!
