Running natural gas pipe in the house for furnace, hot water heater, stove, bbq, dryer, and fireplace. Need someone to tell me the size pipe I need for the lengths from the meter that I need for the pressure / BTUs needed. I'd give someone a couple bucks or a few six packs of a beer of choice if they could help me calculate what I need.

The gas company did this for me when I was pricing them out.

3/4 from the meter back everywhere, half inch on the exits of the T's

Also, not sure if you've ever had anything cooked over natural gas, but there can be a substantial taste difference if you're used to propane. I know several people who have their grills hooked up to their home's gas but have switched back to using propane tanks because of the flavor difference. Just a heads up.

I have a few thermodynamics books you can borrow for free
