I am installing an overhead heater below a balcony overhang. I need to bring a new gas line to the heater. The house is finished but I do have access to the crawl space and a 3/4" tee I left as a just in case near the main.
My plan is to run black pipe/galv from the tee through a sleeve in the exterior wall to the outside, turn and go straight up to run under the eaves, then across backside of a parapet wall then across ~5' flat roof (over the balcony) to a leaded roof jack, and finally down to a ball valve near the heater. Connect heater post valve with flex.
I am pretty confident I can secure the line to the eaves and parapet wall, but my question is what I should do for the 5' run across the roof the leaded jack? I've also thought about doing this with CSST allowing for the legs below eaves to be steel.
