Natural Gas Hookup Advice

Hello, I been wanting to hookup my generator to natural gas but had some questions.

Will it be okay to add a valve to the capped of 1/2" nipple and add the quick connect fitting inside the house? I will run the 36 foot line out a window to a generator that is about 20' away from the house in the yard.

Will I have any issues with pressure drops to the water heater and stove ( stove will most likely not be used if I'm running the generator)? In the event that I have to use the generator in the winter then I would most likely be using my wood stove for heat in the house and not use the forced air heat.

I have a Firman T07571 and my gas meter runs at 5 psi , 20 c.f.h.

No other gas appliances in the house besides the 3 mentioned.
