Looking at a generac generator but am running into an issue. My gas meter is on one side of my house and the electric meter is on the complete opposite side. I’ve had several companies out for bids and all but one wants to run the gas line underground from the meter down the side of my house, all the way across the back then up the other side to where the generator would Be placed by the meter. Problem with that is there is a slab on that side of the house and we will either have to cut the concrete to lay the pipe then recover with concrete or use uni-strut type material and place the gas line on top of the slab but that would make a tripping hazard. One company (and it is a reliable one) said they could run the gas line through the attic and drop it down the wall to the generator. My question is why are all the other companies not willing to do it that way? One said it has 2lbs of pressure in it and he’d rather if it leaked to have it leak outside than in the attic which I agree with but on the other hand our stove and hot water heater are both on the opposite side of the house than where the gas meter is and those lines are in the attic.
anyone else that has a generac have something similar to this?
