Gas Piping Systems and Service in Plano, TX
People are accustomed to thinking of plumbing in connection with water, which is understandable. Most of the pipes in a home are for either bringing in freshwater or removing wastewater. But there are other types of pipes that plumbers work on, which are the natural gas pipes that bring gas from a municipal supply and move it to various appliances in homes, such as stoves, ovens, furnaces, and boilers. Plumbers licensed to work on gas lines are required to handle any job on these pipes, from rigid metal to flexible gas lines.
There are a number of reasons that you may need gas piping work for your home: you want to expand the appliances that use natural gas, you are having remodeling done that will make moving pipes necessary, or you suspect a gas leak. Hutchins Plumbing & Air Conditioning has licensed plumbers to tackle all the work for natural gas pipes that you might require. We serve Plano, TX and all of Grayson and Collin Counties.
Why Expanding Your Natural Gas Piping Is Good Idea
Not all homes have access to a natural gas line, and those that do should try to take advantage of this great fuel source as much as possible. Natural gas is a less expensive energy source than electricity, so switching from electrical–powered kitchen equipment—and especially an electrical–powered furnace—will help to reduce your bills significantly. Natural gas burns cleanly and is much better for the environment than using other heating oils, and it comes conveniently right to your home.
Our gas piping experts will help arrange for expanding your gas lines to whatever new appliances you are planning to install. Consider, for example, using a gas–powered clothes dryer, or changing to an easy–to–use natural gas stove—the kind the best chefs in the world prefer.
Gas Pipe Repairs
A gas leak in a home is potential danger and must receive repairs as soon as possible. Most natural gas producers place a taint into the gas so that it will create a noticeable odor if it escapes into a home. As soon as you suspect there is a gas leak somewhere in your house, shut off the gas and immediately call for a plumbing professional. A licensed expert will know how to track down the location of the leak and then the best way to fix it. No matter what, you must never try to find the leak or attempt to repair it on your own: it’s simply too dangerous.
Only Call Licensed Professionals for Gas Pipe Services in Plano
Having natural gas in your home is a great way to save money and enjoy extra conveniences. And although natural gas appliances are not inherently unsafe, it’s vital that you keep them safe by only going to licensed professionals for service. In fact, in most jurisdictions it is illegal for anyone except a licensed technician to work on a pipe or an appliance that connects to a gas main.
