    Sources for Long Natural Gas Hose

    Does anyone have a source for long flexible gas lines for natural gas similar to something used for big smoker rigs? I am looking for a 1" hose, that is long enough to temporarily hook up at my gas meter outside on brew days so I can brew in my detached garage about 65' away. I already have...

    Solenoid Valve Pressure Drop Issue with Natural Gas

    Thanks guys. Burners were listed at 70k but, so I should be fine with 3/4" pipe. I have a 4' length of 3/4" flex gas line (similar to what you would use for your stove or dryer). The rest is 1" gas line reduced to 3/4". I hook it up about 8 feet away from my gas meter. The boil kettle burner...

    Solenoid Valve Pressure Drop Issue with Natural Gas

    Just realized the STC valves are for inert gas. Natural gas is not an inert gas, so I do probably have the wrong valve for this application. Has anyone out there used an ASCO valve for natural gas? If so, which model? Or pointers on how I figure out which to use? Thanks!

    Solenoid Valve Pressure Drop Issue with Natural Gas

    Thanks BrunDog. There is no regulator except the one on the gas meter. I have my gas line tapped directly off of the house side of the meter so the pressure is whatever my gas meter gives me.

    Solenoid Valve Pressure Drop Issue with Natural Gas

    I am building a single tier system similar to Brutus 10. Natural gas system, three 8" jet burners, two of which have gas flow controlled by STC 2W160-3/8 solenoid valves. I hooked up to natural gas and lit the boil kettle burner (no solenoid valve). Works great! I fired the other two...
