Installing Flexible Gas lines and Propane Heaters in the Workshop.

[@samsdoinstuff]

There is nothing in the world like grandpa's tools ❤

[@redmapleleaf4617]

or Grandmas! I'm using pots for a long time now that are about 75 years old. Handles are in rough shape on some of them but they are my favorite pots to cook in.

[@kingkong7617]

Evan, as long as I have been watching your channel, I have not seen anything that you can't do, electric, gas, solar, plumbing, you have done it all and every job I watched was done professionally, so great job on the propane installation.

[@lastoeck]

Evan is amazing!

[@tarheelgarden]

He's great at doing hours worth of research and showing us how to did it in just minutes! Thank you Evan

[@elvinirons5959]

Another very interesting n informative video !! Thanks for sharing

[@frankwrogg2515]

There is no better helper, than man's best friend 😊😊

[@MyClutteredGarage]

That flexible gas line is a game changer. Nice job! -Ed

[@fredpalmiter9451]

Evan, be sure to plug the ends of your leftover flexible gas line to keep wasps, bees, and other small insects out.

[@ChuckNorriz1122]

That is very simple yet very smart advice. Thx.

[@ithacacomments4811]

Yes, ceiling fans would be good for heat distribution.

[@CountryViewAcres]

There is a ceiling fan in the workshop.

[@Petrochemtester]

Non vented propane heaters make a LOT of moisture. Something to consider if ran in a fairly tight area....the windows and even walls can start to sweat....

[@garycathey7712]

I love watching you do the projects that you do. Everything is done very neatly and professionally. Thanks for sharing your story with us. I always anxiously await your next adventure! Keep those videos coming!

[@cterrier]

You should probably buy a couple of wifi carbon monoxide detectors. Don't know if you have any smart home devices that you can use with the detector. If not there are plenty of detectors on the market that will provide a notification to your phones. Don't know if the automatic propane shut off valves designed for RV's will work in your situation You probably need an automatic shut off if you're at work

[@neilrobinson7843]

Hi Evan and Rebecca, just a quick message from an avid fan of yor channel from England. Firstly I love your honesty, when you make a mistake you don't edit it out which helps others to not make the same mistake. I'm also really impressed that you can both work full time jobs AND give all the animals the attention and care they deserve before freezer camp. Keep up the great work, I look forward to every video you post. All my best wishes for the future, Neil ❤❤❤

[@Kantuski]

Options and more options. You can never have too many alternatives for survival mode. Good video, thanks!

[@mariesheppard3750]

Wow now I know how the gas line s work Thanks Evan for taking us along to another learning program,

[@Dan-qy1rg]

Awesome job Evan, I sure like what your doing with your shop and farm as a whole. Good luck with the rest of the projects you have, thanks for all the information and sharing it with us. I hope you stay warm and have a good weekend!

[@joerodrigues3816]

One more great example of your work mate many thanks for sharing it and all the best to you all

[@BBYMFG]

Def should install one of our emergency stops!

[@DavidRobinson-mx6cl]

Very nice , thanks for sharing !!!!! 😊🙏👍❤️

[@sandratalbert9578]

Cannot believe the unlimited knowledge of tool use you have. Another job well done and so neatly and professionally installed. Kudos Evan! 👍👍👍

[@peterandersen1378]

Evan, the look your dog gave the camera as he lay on the shop sofa when you said you were starting the gas line rough-in for the kennel seemed to say…. “Evan, I’ll stay in here and guard the sofa, I hope you will be comfortable in the kennel”!🇨🇦🥶😂✌🏻👍🏻

[@andrewl7467]

Get a CO 2 monitor for the shop and kennel. The battery ones from Menards are good.

[@bobflores]

A small oscillating fan set on low will help circulate the heat and even out the heat in your shop. I have small fan set to low on 24/7 in my shop. I have no hot or cold spots in my shop. Thanks for the episode.

[@deehooper1025]

So happy to see you see you using Robertson screws (Canadian invention❣️🇨🇦) instead of the easily stripped Phillips one’s❣️🇨🇦☮️

[@InquisitiveSearcher]

Looks like a job well done. However, I would recommend a strap be added to the top of the heater in the kennel to prevent the dogs from accidentally tipping it over. And with the one in the workshop I would add a screw at the bottom of the unit to make sure it isn't accidentally lifted off of it's mounting bracket. ( It'll also come in handy at holding things in place in case of an earthquake. 😏)

[@bishopkinlyside8477]

Hi, is still amazes me that America is using old method of measuring measuring. The metric system is so much easier. I remember on 14 February 1966, when Australia change going from yards inches etc etc the good thing about the metric system is just blocks of 10 so simple thank God I live in the real world

[@bpdp379]

It worked well enough for NASA and the moon landings…😂

[@johndernberger1961]

And the dogs seem to enjoy the new heat too. Nice project, thanks for sharing.

[@elizabethlenning8723]

As always, great video!

[@glengillis7775]

Watch for CO Levels when those heaters don't burn clean blue flames.

[@josealvarado8964]

I enjoy watching your videos Evan and Rebecca keep up the good work on the farm. It looks awesome.👍🏽🙂

[@TheRange7]

That house is AWESOME. I wish we could use flexi line for gas here in the Chicago area.

[@carolmackenzie2283]

Great job , AGAIN, you sure are very knowledgeable, nice to see the dogs❤

[@billyhaddock5540]

Congrats Evan, on finally getting around to installing the shop gas lines and heaters. I know the Dogs will like the heat..

[@waynek921]

Evan I always have enjoyed your channel and content of the farm Life of neverending chores

[@jamesazahn6842]

Learned a lot as to how these types of heating system work, and too, the cost of setup and to run, especially with use of electricity. "Thanks for sharing"!

Good to see you back on again I know it's been cold.

[@markfin7225]

-6, it’s warm. Just kidding. We’ve been as low as -33 this winter. Add wind, it’s darn cold.

[@MN-pu6qx]

I love the flexible gas line. Great job well done.

[@1new-man]

Great post; Never meet a man that didn't cuss a heat pump when it's needed most. A wise man once said an able bodied soul with a FP insert Is a warm soul even on the coldest of days with or without electricity. Btw love my backup LP gas units both indoor and outdoor! U be rite LP gas heat with thermostats R priceless And save $$$$ big time!

[@201roadrage201]

Evan, make sure you are following bonding procedures with CSST. Many houses have caught fire when CSST is not properly grounded/bonded.

[@doone5303]

Not gonna lie, you made that look super easy

[@michaeltrapp1]

I'm sure not trying to tell you how to do your job, but you might consider checking out the installation instructions. I've installed CSST multiple times. From the mfg instructions I believe you need to run a solid copper ground wire (lightning strikes pop holes in the stainless tubing) for that system. I hope you take this as it was meant to be- just a little helpful advice. I really enjoy your channel. Thank you.

[@jamescole3152]

Wow the shop is so nice. Metal siding looks great.

[@cvmikeray2]

Evan, timely video for me. About to do this type project and had already decided CSST was the way to go.

[@stuartsplace100]

Good Day,winter has arrived here in Vermont,cold,not much snow,been a wierd year,i burn wood,luv it.

[@ronaldclemons5520]

Nice job Evan. These should help during cold days. I see your tractor in the back ground covered up. Blessings🙂

[@Barracuda48082]

Add a couple solar fans to push heat down.. 6x6 x3/4 plank hollow columns, fan motor mounts central, only moves about 50 cfm at 12vdc drawing air down column and blows across floor area.

[@MarkOstrowski-qr2ni]

Nice to meet you

[@robertdknight]

150,000 subscribers. Congratulations. It's been fun watching that number grow over the years! God bless

[@MrXcc4u]

hey Evan, can i suggest that when running gas piping, to install the shut off valve before the "T" instead of in the "branch" line as you did. that way when it comes time to clean out the debris in the "DEAD LEG or DIRT LEG" or when service is needed on the appliance, you can shut off the gas local to the work needed instead of the main gas line. also i commented a while back that it would have been better to install a ground mount for the solar so snow can be removed from it without climbing up onto the shop roof. stay warm up there in the cold country. jim in central florida

[@LarryeWhite61]

I agree on solar ground mounts. Who wants to deal with snow build-up on the panels when up on a roof?

[@leolarocque-h4e]

This video is right on time for me. I am looking at adding a 30,000btu natural gas ventless heater in our living room as a back up heat source.

[@mimicolvin3200]

You are amazing at everything you do. You explain each step and you show what to do. With you showing it, it would not be hard to learn. The project was neatly placed from traffic so no damage would occur, great thing to do. To cover the pipe on the wall be great with no distractions. Very professional job well done. I know the dogs will love the warmth you provided for them. Glad you got heat for the barn and right on time. Thanks for sharing. Be safe and keep. Bye for now from Alabama. It’s cold here at 17 degrees at night and lower 30’s during the day. Tell Rebecca stay warm.

[@jerryharper7347]

That was an interesting installation., Good job.

[@SteveJackson-y8v]

Great video Evan, you’re a talented guy. I must say that I’m very envious of you because I see you do these types of projects with solar, electrical and now this propane heater installation without pulling any permits and getting it inspected. In my area around Seattle we’d have to get a permit for so many of the projects you do. You’re so lucky.

[@1tojo]

I fed my life stock a little corn when the weather got down to freezing it has a lot of heat in it

It sure is cold and glad you got your heaters hooked up...I was the 1K to like this video and I thought that was pretty cool...Sure enjoying watching your videos and thanks for sharing...stay warm...Love Hugs Happiness and Prayers...💗😇🙏🏻

[@albertlovshin7791]

[@hschultz123]

Evan, "ventless" heaters still need to be vented. An airtight room will be dangerous. The heater uses the oxygen in the room and expels carbon dioxide and some carbon monoxide.

Evan, I am so envious of your skill set and your workshop. With a tad bit of fortune I'll get a garage built this year to have a shop, if on a much smaller scale, to do some projects, store some things and work on my vehicles and tractor. Great video with a lot of good information. Thank you!

[@coyotiess]

Its like that good old cold front with Snow

[@douglasscott3936]

Great video. I recommend taping or plugging the ends of the remaining role of tubing as bugs will build nests inside the tubing thus causing blockage when vou try to use it.

[@garyjohn316]

You have enough area for oxygen in the shop but the dog kennel needs air coming in from outside. These are great heaters but they can be toxic! Great install and video!

[@MrBubbahunt9]

Did you not watch the video ? each kennel has an outdoor that I guarantee isn't air tight ..

[@garyjohn316]

@@MrBubbahunt9 l'm saying you need a cracked window not air seeping through cracks in a door. Do your homework on these heaters and you may understand what I am talking about!

[@bpdp379]

@@garyjohn316you can see the little doggy door flap. Do you reckon one big enough to allow an Aussie to fit through allows enough fresh air?

It looks pretty tight to me. When I use mine at my cabin, I will open a window about 10 inches. It's not fun waking up with condensation on your walls and throat so dry it's hard to breathe.@@bpdp379

That is not enough air, sorry! When I use the one in my cabin, I crack my window a good 8 in. or more. It's not fun waking up in the middle of the night with a very dry mouth and condensation on the walls.@@bpdp379

[@ellisc.foleyjr9778]

Great Job Evan, I was able to catch up on some of the gas equipment that is available watching this. and love the idea that you were able to take that old tank outside and refurbish it and reuse it here for the shop. love that corrigation on that hose pipe. looks easy to work with. and I hope those two hearters do what you want for the maintenance of the shop heat level you seek. Thanks for sharing ECF

Man you’re doing a great job! Stay at it.

[@dickwright2134]

[@neeterdave]

Evan, I used to work for the company that imported the CSST hose from South Korea. We leak tested every hose and assembled all of the fittings like you used. Most of the time, this hose was run through a structure, through the framework, and steel plates attached to the 2 x 4’s in front of the hose as a nail stop. We use to sell to Menards and Lowes.

[@garygarner9007]

Good video you always put up good stuff keep up the good work and stay warm

[@andyrobinson339]

With the high ceilings I really would be surprised if that heater can do much in there.

[@CountryViewAcres]

I have a ceiling fan that circulates the air. And with the heater on the lowest setting, it has been keeping it 51 degrees.

[@squirrellyacres]

Looking forward to your updates about the heaters. I'm looking at using one of those for our outdoor kitchen at our camp.

[@CountryViewAcres]

They are running fine. It is keeping the shop at 51 degrees on the lowest setting. I have used these type heaters in the past to heat my attached garage when I lived in town. I never had any issues. Just have to blow the dust out them and clean before starting them up in the winter.

[@YoungbloodFamilyFarm]

Evan, I heat my small machine shop with a combination of direct vent propane and electric. Watch the humidity of your space as this burning propane will raise the humidity. Humidity will rust and cause an increase in condensation

[@patriciabeyer8029]

I had a heater like yours for my dogs. Only to find out later. When I was gone. The dogs would turn the heater up.

[@gregj2647]

Nice installation. Not sure if you have ceiling fans, but they would definitely help to bring the warm air down off the ceiling, especially with those high ceilings.

[@outdoorstudios2022]

Thanks CVA

[@bradh74]

I used to work for a propane company and went through training to be a tech (installer). The "yellow poly" gas line we used "had to" have a protective sleeve over it when it came out of the ground and was exposed to "UV light". The "poly" was great in some situations but we opted to use copper most times unless corrosion was an issue (due to soil conditions, normally) or conductivity was a concern. After watching this seeing that's the line with a steel core you should be safe to use that throughout the whole shop. Not sure why you opted to bury that but it works. Good video.

[@CountryViewAcres]

The flexible stainless steel gas line was only used inside the building. Underground from the propane tank to workshop is coated copper tubing.

[@bradh74]

@@CountryViewAcres That's all you should use it for really, is the connection to your heater/appliance. (so you can move it) but you said you use 75 feet, you must have meant the copper.

[@CountryViewAcres]

@bradh74 I have a separate video that shows the installation of the propane regulators and underground copper line.

[@rebaker2012]

Great Video. As someone that did that work for 32 years I thought you did a great job. Two thing that you might want to think about for future. If you place the shut off valve on the the main drop(within 6 ft of Appliance ) you would be able to do Pressure test at the Drip ( small nipple at bottom of black iron drop ) without turning off gas at tank. Be careful using ventless heaters. As long as the oxygen depletion sensor works they are are fine little units. Also watch to make sure that you have enough pressure to operate properly, You can have pressure but when the unit kicks on it will not have the volume to substain the unit. This is most notable in continuous cold weather. This is do to pipe diameter and length of run

[@CountryViewAcres]

That's the bad part of the CSST is it has less BTUs per length of pipe than black pipe of the same size. Right now I am at about at max BTUs for the length of pipe I ran. But I should be ok.

[@flossdaly8274]

Great job Evan. The CSST must be permanently bonded directly to the grounding electrode system of the electrical service of the home in which the CSST is installed.
