Default PSI

If I am piping propane into my studio from outside what pressure or PSI should the propane be set at. I am having a hard time with the energy guys getting my studio set up. Thanks!

Check your local building codes. Some codes do not allow for more than 10 PSI inside the studio. The code will vary for home vs industrial use. IMO place the regulator outside and pipe in 5 PSI for your torch.

I bring it in at 10 psi but my torch runs at 10 psi. Regulator is outside on the tank and the whole shebang is in a plastic 'tool box' to hide the propane tanks.
