Cat; from your post, it sounds like you are connecting each tank up individually, Is that the case? I was thinking along the lines of plumbing the propane in during construction. Really want to stay away from flexible lines with propane. The stuff can turn any low spot it gathers in into a bomb. Also would rather not have 5 gal tanks siting beside each appliance. or do you manifold the tanks together and valve off as they empty?

Right now the dryer is on the first floor open storage area so we hooked a tank up directly. Open air, plenty breeze not in a closet. The relatively portable BBQ is on our deck 2nd floor. Again on the deck, open air. It made no sense (yet) to mainfold them together.
If we go to a gas W/H we will go with a bigger tank that feeds dryer and W/H. Right now - ours (for dryer) is in a legal spot. Probably a 20 gal that WE purchase, but gas company will fill would be the next step.
