Can anyone offer some assistance on helping me size L.P. gas line for higher pressure systems? (10 -90 psi) Also on lower pressure systems (11 " W.C.) Thanks for the help!!

90 psi? Is this a commercial system and if so are you planning vaporizers? and yes..either message me or post it here we can work out the line sizing easy enough..0

For normal piping setups you can just use the chart in the fuel code. https://codes.iccsafe.org/public/document/IFGC2018/chapter-4-gas-piping-installations
If you want to figure out odd ones, try using the enginnering tool box for natural gas and change the specific gravity to 1.5 for propane.

need btu loads and length of pipe, ie a diagram of what you are doing"The bitter taste of a poor install lasts far longer than the JOY of the lowest price"0
