[QUOTE="tyromeo55, post: 1998938, member: 1719"] NG is delivered to the customer at a VERY low pressure like from just a couple ounces up to 1.5 Lb . The longer the distance from its source the quicker it looses its ability to move the gas. Also. Every time you add a fitting like a 90 deg elbow you're going to also further reduce. Think of a short straw and a long one stuck into your favorite drink. Your going to get a lot more drink out of the short one then one of the same diameter but longer. Here is a chart I found quickly. I dont have a code book in front of me so I dont know how it correlates to our code but it is good enough to get the idea.
