I have a 3/4 line that runs about 50' with a stub out for a BBQ at the 30' mark and a large 300BTU firepit at 50' mark. I plan to have a 100lb tank and was wondering if I should just plumb this to the line directly with a shutoff but no regulator considering the distance of the line. Each of the appliances obviously have different outputs. Do I need a regulator at the propane tank or can I just add regulators on the line from the stub out to the appliance? Or should I add like a dual chamber regulator at the tank and regulators at the appliances? Any help is appreciated.
