Do I need an earthquake gas shut-off valve?

• <div><p>Some cities or states may require you to have an earthquake gas shut-off valve. Your insurance provider may also have requirements for installing this valve. Even if you don’t have to have one by law, it’s wise to have a natural gas plumber install one anyway. These devices can be lifesaving and prevent fires or explosions in the event of a gas leak.</p></div>

What appliances need to be connected to a gas line?

• <div><p>Appliances typically connected to a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-a-gas-line.htm">gas line</a> include <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-should-it-cost-install-gas-stove-home-already-has-gas.htm">gas stoves</a>, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/gas-vs-electric-water-heaters.htm">water heaters</a>, furnaces, and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-convert-wood-fireplace-gas.htm">gas fireplaces</a>. Essentially, any appliance in your home that uses gas needs to be connected to a gas line, which connects your home with the main gas line owned and operated by your gas company.</p></div>

Q: How do you empty a propane tank?

• <div><p>The easiest way to empty a propane tank is to simply use it until no propane remains. If you&rsquo;re short on time and need a faster solution, transfer the propane to another tank instead. Wear leather gloves to protect your hands, then connect the hoses from both propane tanks and seal them tightly. Turn the knob to open the supply tank valve on the full tank and let it run until the pressure pushes all the propane into the other tank. When all propane is transferred, remove the hose and seal each tank. </p></div>

Q: What are common issues in gas piping that require attention?

• <div><p>Leaks, low pressure, or inefficient flow are common problems needing professional repairs.</p></div>

Q: Will the gas company connect my dryer?

• <div><p>Although a gas company supplies gas to homes, connecting gas appliances, like a dryer, is not their responsibility. The primary role of a gas company is to safely deliver gas to a property and maintain the gas supply lines up to a specific point, typically the gas meter or shut off valve. The task of installation is usually taken on by the homeowner or professional dryer installer. </p></div>
