What Is a Pro-Flex Ox Box?
A Pro-Flex Ox Box provides a recessed termination point for a compatible flexible gas piping system. Instead of leaving the appliance gas connection projecting from the finished wall, the outlet box creates a defined connection area containing the gas shutoff valve.
The assembly combines the outlet box, Pro-Flex piping connection, and angle valve into a convenient termination arrangement for compatible gas appliance installations.
This configuration can provide a cleaner finished appearance while maintaining access to the appliance shutoff connection.
