I have noticed all the new natural gas lines being piped in my area. What is the process, and when is a licensed plumber needed?
There are numerous benefits to switching to natural gas. It’s less expensive and burns cleaner than propane and much cleaner than oil. There is a consistent supply with no risk of “running out”. It is a good power source for a whole house generator, as propane tanks can be depleted in a few days operating a generator.

The first step in converting is to contact the gas company. They will confirm that there is a gas main on your street and will determine where the gas can be brought into the house. They will present you with a contract, which often states that if you connect within a certain amount of time, they will bring the line from the street to your house for free. A great deal, as this is usually thousands of dollars to have done!

After that, a licensed plumber or licensed HVAC technician must complete the interior gas piping as well as install a new water heater or boiler or convert the existing equipment. Permits are required.
Gas affords you the option to improve efficiency ratings from 80%-87% for oil to a maximum of 98% with natural gas. If you heat your water with an electric water heater, a gas water heater can provide recovery rates between 43 gallons per hour and 82 gallons per hour for a standard water heater and near infinite with a tankless water heater, compared to 21 gallons per hour for a 50 gallon electric water heater. Other appliances that can be powered by gas are stoves, ovens, dryers, space heaters, and fireplaces, and outdoor grill. With all the modern techniques and piping options, a natural gas conversion is a feasible option for nearly all homeowners that offers a greatly reduced cost of living as well as a fast return on investment.
