Why Propane Gas Pipe Sizing Matters

- This video details an excellent example of why proper sizing of gas pipe is important for both natural gas and propane pipe installations. I demonstrate the system challenges that I discovered with my system, show how and why I fixed them, and review many important details of how I choose to interpret the national gas code on my individual installation.

I found value in the video. Thx for posting. I’m figuring the piping for (6) 125k btu radiant heaters in a greenhouse with the tank about 100 ft from the 2nd stage reg. Longest leg inside will be about 150’. Fun fun.
Great presentation . The demonstration of before and after makes all details on the longest run piping using the monometer purposely clear .
Thank you very much!
Excellent explanation. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Good explanation
Thanks
that water heater has a long list of do-nots in the manual. you have a furnace right next to it.
i got the same one.
I agree. It's a domestic on demand water heater used for infloor heating, which is the first no-no. Yeah, had to fit it all in a small space bought some items before I got into the business. The gas piping works great though!
In my country, i learnt we have a mix of 30% Propane, 70% Butane. Will your method still work? I believe you have 100% propane. Do I have to do any conversions with any formulas?
Hello, I do not know the pressures for your gas mixture and would recommend talking to an HVAC professional in your area. This example in my video is for liquid propane gas at 1/2 PSI pressure. The charts for feet and sizes will likely be different in your case.
Butane has a different boiling point. It will turn into wax mostly in colder climate
Do you run all rigid pipe or branch off to flex hoses?
I have all rigid pipes but I also have access to use a pipe threader from work. Rigid pipe and flex hoses do have different sizing charts though so if you find yourself using flex, make sure you are looking at the correct sizing chart. Good luck!
Your entire video is uncomfortably rushed, aurally and more importantly visually. The value of your imagery is degraded by the MTV/music video quick cuts between images of interest. Some images are so short it's difficult to halt the video on the image. If it's worth including in your video, it's worth giving the viewers time to absorb the image without back tracking. Next time, take whatever time you think an image should be shown & multiply that by at least five.
Ouch! I agree to some extent though. Some of my recorded content had some inaccuracies that I had to correct with the text pop-ups. If I take the time to redo the video I'll try to send you the link. Thanks for the feedback.
I disagree, it was exactly what I needed and didn’t waste any time. I even had time to screen shot the chart without pausing it. Thanks for an informative video.
Nah, I watched the whole thing and learned exactly what I needed to know.
Perfect speed for me. Keep up the good work! Thanks!
