Q: How long do gas lines last?

• <div><p>Gas lines are built for longevity, so they can last up to 50 years when installed properly. However, normal wear and tear are possible, especially in moderate climates. Having a plumber or local gas company inspect your gas lines <b>every year</b> is best to ensure there are no hidden leaks or other dangerous problems. </p></div>

Q: Can a shut-off valve go bad?

• <div><p>Shut-off valves, like any other piece of metal hardware, can corrode, age, get worn down, and eventually break or rust into place. Occasionally spray your shut-off valve with WD-40 to stall it from rusting. If it really gets stuck, a wrench and WD-40 will usually do the trick, but you will need to call a plumber if it&rsquo;s completely unmovable.</p></div>

Q: Does propane burn differently than natural gas?

• <div><p>In some ways, yes, and in some ways, no. As for how they&rsquo;re the same, propane and gas both burn via the same process, combustion, and at the same temperature, around 3,600 degrees Fahrenheit. The difference is that propane produces more heat per unit than gas. One cubic foot of propane contains 2,516 BTU, while one cubic foot of gas contains 1,030 BTU.</p></div>

Q: Can you vent a gas water heater out the side of the house?

• <div><p>You can and should vent the gas from your hot water heater to the outside of your home. Traditionally, these gases were vented back to other gas appliances, like stoves or furnaces, but many jurisdictions have outlawed this practice due to the risks it provides. </p><p>Most water heaters today use atmospheric venting that exhausts the gas out of the home through a pipe.</p></div>

Q: Who do I call to install a new natural gas line?

• <div><p>Most qualified local plumbers in your area should be able to help with this job. However, it's always best to check with your utility company before starting any gas-related project. Speak with them about your needs and request recommendations for licensed plumbers who can pull permits and properly install the line.</p></div>

I mean this whole-heartedly when I say if I could give them a negative review, I would. Honestly, after everything they did if I could get them shut down, I would. My next step is reporting them to the BBB. These guys talk a good bargain, they price match anywhere in town and talk you into...
