Natural gas piping inside an office building
Natural gas piping inside an office building
(OP)
Hi all,
I'm looking a an option of installing a natural gas fired engine generator on the roof of a building. The natural gas would have to be piped from the Gas Company's meter/regulating station (at grade) up to the roof (15 floors up). I am concerned about running a gas pipeline in an existing pipe chase that also has steam, hot water and electric lines. What is the typical approach in this instant - do you normally try to find a special dedicated pipe chase for natural gas? Note: It cannot be run up the outside of the building. Thanks.

Look to the NFPA natural gas specification. It has informatonon the design and installa tion of gas lines in buildings.
