Q: Can I convert my oil furnace to gas?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s possible to convert an oil furnace to gas. However, you may have to replace the furnace completely instead of simply converting it. If the original oil furnace has had any type of damage or is older (typically considered over 15 years old), then you will likely need a full replacement versus a conversion.</p></div>

Q: Can you fix a hole in a gas line?

• <div><p>No, fixing or patching a hole in a gas line may not seal it completely. A patch should be a temporary solution because the damaged area will be weaker than the rest of the pipe, increasing the likelihood of future leaks. Therefore, if a gas line incurs damage, call a licensed plumber and have it replaced right away.</p></div>

Q: Is pipefitting harder than plumbing?

• <div><p>Pipefitting is a more specialized profession, and pipefitters work with complex systems and low- and high-pressure pipes, so it can be considered harder than plumbing. Though each profession comes with its challenges, the nature of pipefitting requires working with heavier materials in fast-paced and dangerous environments, which can be more challenging than working on residential and commercial plumbing systems.</p></div>

Q: Who puts in a gas line for a fireplace?

• <div><p>You should have a licensed plumber to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/who-installs-or-runs-gas-line.htm">install a gas line</a> for your new gas fireplace. As experts in all things natural gas, these professionals understand how to work with gas safely to avoid explosions, leaks, and other potentially hazardous situations. They also know how to handle the other aspects of the process, including pulling permits, digging trenches, and connecting new gas lines to old lines.</p></div>
