My house is around 100 eet long and the main circuit box is on the other side from the garage in the basement. Cables cannot be run through the basement ceiling, so they have to run a shielded cable around the outside of the house and into the garage. Apparently a 250 foot shielded copper cable runs around $2000. I fill my tank around once every two weeks at 90 a fill. Comes out to 45 weeks now that I do it again.
