I am installing a bosch tankless water heater in the attic and I need to have a plumber rerun some gas lines. The question is this...The existing gas line comes in under the house in the crawl space and gets split to oven, water heater and, furnace. It seems like it would be a good idea to have the plumber take the 11/4' pipe under the house straight up to the attice and then split the the appliances. the only thing I question is if it is ok to take the gas pipe to the oven down the exterior wall. Basicly this will put all of the gas up in the attic. It seem like it would be safer. Any opinions are appriciated.
