Gas Lines
Gas line repair and installation
Gas line repair covers leaks and damaged pipe from the meter to your appliances. It also includes new lines for ranges, grills, fire pits and pool heaters. If you smell gas, leave the house first and call Southwest Gas or 911 from outside. A plumber repairs the line and pressure-tests it before gas is restored.

Most Valley homes with gas are served by Southwest Gas. Common plumbing work includes adding lines for outdoor kitchens and fire features, and fixing corroded or damaged yard lines.
Tankless water heaters and pool heaters need a lot of gas, so line sizing matters.
