Gas Line Repair
Safety is our top priority. The first thing we do is make sure the gas supply to the property is turned off. Next, we also make sure the water heaters are turned off, as well as your other appliances with a standing pilot.
We complete all gas connections according to code. Once it’s done, we test everything with soap to confirm visual bubbles, and we also use a high-tech gas sniffer to alert us if there’s gas leaking from any of the joints we’ve worked on or from joints around the areas we’ve worked.
When we turn everything back on, we relight all the pilots, hang out at your house for a little while, make sure that we’re not getting any odors from anywhere. If everything’s working as it should, we wrap it up.
Risks of Ignoring Gas Line Issues
If you have an active gas leak, there is a high chance it’s going to lead to a fire or explosion. These problems need to be addressed immediately. That is probably the largest emergency that you can have.
Depending on your area and what power is running, it can be more energy efficient for you to have a gas appliance versus an all electric appliance, which helps reduce your electrical bill.
