I would think the unit would be on the outside of the garage. If not - it should include a very sensitive leak detection system. The thought of a gas transfer event occurring within the closed environment of ones garage would be frightening.

I will not even store a propane container in our garage.

Looks like a good idea.

Maybe the State/Fed could install sealed meters at these home pumps. The homeowner could then purchase recharge vouchers, either at a distributor or over the Internet, and punch in the recharge numbers that will provide him with a NG supply.

In that way the State/Fed could take a certain percentage of the recharge cost and put it towards road maintenance, etc...

"I have seen those NG fueling pumps for the home. It's really a game changer especially when refueling can be done over night in the garage."

Maybe it's just me, but I'd feel uncomfortable having the thing filling up my car/truck overnight, with my gas (pilot lit), water heater also in the same garage. The slightest little leak and BOOM.
