How this work is handled

Gas piping for appliances

Gas piping may be needed for water heaters, ranges, dryers, fireplaces, grills, generators, and other appliance changes.

Gas piping during remodels

Gas work is easier to plan before walls, cabinets, finished surfaces, and schedules are locked in.

Access, shutoffs, and testing

A responsible plan accounts for where the line can run, where shutoffs belong, how the appliance is served, and what testing is needed.

Plan around the appliance, not just the pipe

The appliance requirements, location, fuel demand, existing piping, and access all shape the project. If gas odor is present, leave the area and contact the gas utility or emergency services as appropriate.
