[TheForge] propane lines

Wed Aug 20 22:52:01 2003

My local LP supplier ran a rubber (or ilk) hose from the tank outside along
the wall at 8' and down a black steel drop with a quick connect and a valve.
It works fine.

I got a rubber hose, regulator and stuff from Jay Hayes.  I found that the
flexible electrical conduit (called Greenfield around here) was just the
right size to fish the rubber hose through.  I also used regular electrical
connectors at the ends to avoid sharp edges.

I think it works great and it's cheap and safe.
