Gas Leak Repair questions, answered by experts

The cost to convert an electric stove to a gas stove ranges from $125 to $2,000, depending on your kitchen's current setup. If you already have a gas line behind your stove, a plumber may only charge around $125 to hook up the new range. However, running a new gas line costs between $260 and $820, and setting up a new gas service for the house can cost around $2,000.

Many people find the switch worthwhile. Gas stoves offer more precise temperature control and can last up to 15 years, compared to 13 years for most electric stoves. However, there are safety considerations, as electric stoves are generally safer. If your main issue with your electric stove is temperature control, an induction stove could be a better alternative, offering accuracy without introducing new safety hazards. When planning the switch, ensure the dimensions of the new stove match the old one.

All U.S. states require permits for gas grill installation, so you’ll have to get one before you move forward with your project. Permits help ensure that the gas line runs safely to avoid gas leaks and explosions. Gas line permits can usually also only be pulled by certified plumbers, which means you’ll have to hire a professional from the start. The permit for a gas line installation for a gas grill usually costs between $100 and $300. You can contact your installation company or building department for more accurate pricing.

In most cases, a gas stove should be installed by a licensed plumber. Connecting gas appliances carries many risks, chief among them a fatal gas leak. If your home is already set up with the proper gas hookups, you may be able to DIY the installation (or save money by hiring a local handyperson or basic appliance installer near you rather than a plumber). If you’re ever in doubt, however, we recommend going with a professional master plumber.

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. 

Most water heaters today use atmospheric venting that exhausts the gas out of the home through a pipe.

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.
