Hi all.
I have been bouncing all over the internet and local knowledge base and have landed here with hope of at least some direction.
I have a very small rv park. I recently installed a small building with the intentions of using it as a washateria. I have purchased 3 washers and 3 gas dryers along with an on demand gas water heater. I have all of the specs on the equipment and piping that I have installed but cannot get answers on pressures and regulators. So this is what I now have so far.
The utility company has put me a commercial gas meter that has a 1" line running to my building. I was told by them that I am being supplied with 5 psi of pressure.
Going into the building, I have a 1" tee. One side reduces to 1/2" and is piped 10' away to the water heater.
The other side of the tee is reduced to 1/2" also and runs about 6' to the first 1/2" tee for the first dryer. The second tee is 2' away to the second dryer and the last dryer connection is another 2' away.
The water heater specs are:
.3 psi NG
111.903 BTU
The dryers' specs are each:
20,000 BTU/HR
From what I have gathered so far is that I may need a main regulator at the building entrance and then one for each appliance. Is this correct? And what size and/or type of regulators do I use?
Thanks
