Q: Can you use galvanized pipe for propane and natural gas?

• <div><p>While some building codes allow galvanized pipe for natural gas, it shouldn&rsquo;t be used for propane. Propane can cause the pipe to wear down, leading to dangerous leaks. Instead of galvanized piping for propane, you should consider coated copper, black iron, or corrugated stainless steel tubing (CSST). For underground propane line installation, you can use polyethylene (PE). </p></div>

Q: What kind of tape do you use for gas lines?

• <div><p>Only yellow Teflon tape is approved for use on gas lines. Also called yellow PTFE tape, it is thicker and specifically rated for use on natural gas and propane connections. Standard white Teflon tape is not safe for gas applications. If you have questions about sealing gas line connections, contact a pro like a gas line contractor or plumber <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/who-installs-or-runs-gas-line.htm">who installs or runs gas lines</a>.</p></div>

Q: How often should I have my gas system inspected?

• <div><p>Consider an annual inspection conducted by a local plumber to prevent dangerous and destructive leaks. If you recently moved into an older home or are concerned about the age of your gas lines, call an inspector for a closer look. You may also be required to call an inspector after your contractor installs a new line for an appliance. </p></div>

For underground propane line installation, you can use polyethylene (PE).

Only yellow Teflon tape is approved for use on gas lines. Also called yellow PTFE tape, it is thicker and specifically rated for use on natural gas and propane connections. Standard white Teflon tape is not safe for gas applications. If you have questions about sealing gas line connections, contact a pro like a gas line contractor or plumber who installs or runs gas lines.
