Reasons to Install New Gas Lines

Having gas lines installed provides numerous benefits. Since this fuel is delivered directly to your home on-demand, you don’t have to store oil or propane onsite, and there’s no risk of running out of fuel on a cold winter day. Compared to electric appliances, gas versions are more affordable to operate. Many also continue to function during power outages, depending on the ignition method.

Here are the top scenarios when it’s necessary to install gas lines:

Common Gas Line Problems

Having a natural gas line installed in your home allows you to enjoy cost-effective and convenient fuel delivery straight to your appliances, grill, or fireplace. A vast majority of the time, gas lines operate correctly and safely with no risk to your home or family. However, natural gas lines do occasionally have problems.

Here are the potential issues that could arise with your gas line:

Natural gas pipes may crack with age or become damaged if they are struck with a shovel. To prevent a leak, always dial 811 to locate buried pipes and wires before you dig.

Damaged joints or improperly installed connections may come loose over time, leading to dangerous leaks.

Contaminant buildup or debris at the access point can cause blockages, resulting in appliance malfunctions.

Partially closed valves may block the natural gas flow, while a leaky valve could create a safety hazard.

Gas Line FAQs

Absolutely, yes. In order to provide or even offer to provide gas services, a company must have an MHIC, HVACR, and/or Master Plumber/Gas Fitter license. Gas lines must be laid, inspected, and tested by a WSSC-licensed contractor. It must then be approved by the local gas utility provider before it can be used. This is why Chimney.com handles the entire process from start to finish. 

Yes, in some cases, it’s possible to use an existing gas line. It’s best left up to a certified contractor, as mishandling gas lines can be incredibly dangerous, but in many situations, an existing line can be split to run multiple gas-fed appliances. 

The most common sign of a leak is detected by smell — natural gas is odorless, tasteless, and colorless, but utility providers add a material called mercaptan to gas, giving it a distinct rotten egg or sulfurous odor. 

Other common signs include:

  • Hissing noises from or near a gas line
  • Odd behavior from gas-fed appliances (strange flame color, “spitting” flame, etc.)
  • Kicked up dust or debris near a gas line 
  • Sudden houseplant wilting or death
