Gas Pool Heater
I want to install a gas pool heater. My low pressure gas line to the pool shed is 3/4in and 150 ft away. What size heater can I install and what happens if I install one with more BTUs than the 3/4in can handle?

low pressure gas line to the pool shed is 3/4in and 150 ft away.
Most important is where does this line connect to the main homes gas piping? Answer that and we can guide you further.. Be specific...

If the 3/4 " pipe comes from the meter of the home then @ 150 ft you get 64K btu..
Forget about a pool heater...
If you install bigger it will just starve for gas and soot up.. Waste of money...
Run a new line or go solar...............
