[AT] Shop LP Plumbing

[charlie hill]

I believe you are correct on that Mike.  I know that is the case in NC.  You 
can run copper from the tank to the wall and copper from the wall to the 
burner but the piece that goes through the wall has to be black iron.  There 
is some plastic pipe that they run gas through.  Recently the natural gas 
company has been installing new lines in our area (unfortunately not at my 
house) and they are using plastic.  I don't have a clue what it's called or 
where to buy it but it should be easy to find online.
