We are in the process of building a house. The house is on a site where a double wide sat which we sold. In the process we had to move the propane tank. I want to run a line from the tank to the house then continue on to the garage. I also want to run a line from the tank to the shop. I have had some experience with plastic lines and think they would be a significant savings over Copper.
I have been told I need a high pressure red regulator at the tank and lower pressure regulators at the three buildings. I was also told that the risers for the plastic lines require a special tool. Several years ago I helped lay some plastic propane lines and the risers just snapped on the plastic lines much like Sharkbite on PEX. Special fittings were also mentioned.
Any comments?
