I believe most plumbers or furnace professionals are very familiar with a standard gas hookup and where to locate it in the wall to install a gas stove. If they have questions and really need to know exact measurements they can look at the stove or drop past any retail outlet that handles it and take measurements. Usually it is not that critical because the flexible connecting line that goes from the gas pipe in your wall to the stove could be two to four or five feet long to allow a person to connect it,then push the stove back into the space. That being said,as you look at the front of the stove, towards the back and towards the space it will fit into, the connection is down near the floor and towards the left hand side of the back side of the stove. (Not all the way --but significantly towards the left side from center) I believe my pipe extended up out of the floor about 10-12 inches . One note of importance, in order to make sure the stove can fit all the way back against the wall and not have a gap between the back of the stove and the wall, the flexible (although stiff) connecting line needs to fold into the horizontal recessed space on the lower back of the stove as you push the stove back into the space. If it comes up vertically there will be a gap behind the back of the stove where stuff can fall behind. So for an installer who pays attention to that detail you should not have a problem. Why not pay best buy to install it and save the hassle? I installed my own and did a great job but took me 4 trips to three stores to get all the right angles of elbows and brass connectors to get everything to fit into the space and to get the size of the connecting line to fit into that space at the back of the stove.
