How do you fix a broken gas line?

• <div><p>If you suspect a broken gas line in your home, turn the gas off at the mains and call a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/emergency-plumbers/">nearby emergency plumber</a>. Don't attempt to fix it yourself, and don't use anything that could cause a flame or a spark. Your pro has the tools and experience to safely repair the gas line.</p></div>

Who installs propane lines?

• <div><p>It’s no secret that natural gas differs from propane, but you’re in luck—licensed plumbers can also install propane gas lines. When you speak to a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/natural-gas-plumbers/">gas plumber near you</a>, be sure you specify that your project will be for propane gas, not natural gas. Propane lines are slightly different than natural gas lines, so clear communication is key to ensure that your project is completed without a hitch. </p></div>

Q: Is it better to have natural gas or propane?

• <div><p>Propane is more cost-efficient than natural gas on a per-unit basis because it produces twice as much heat energy as an equivalent amount of natural gas. But propane is not ideal if you already have a gas line installed. The best choice for your home depends on the efficiency of your appliances and the amount of installation required of your fuel choice.</p></div>

Q: Do you need to wrap gas pipes for winter?

• <div><p>As long as a licensed professional installs your gas lines, you don&rsquo;t have to do anything extra to prepare for cold weather. If there are pipes that require a wrap, your installer should have done it for you already. If you want to be absolutely sure your gas system is good to go for winter, the best option is to schedule a gas line inspection. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to replace a gas valve?

• <div><p>Replacing a gas valve on a water heater will take a professional plumber between 1 and 1&frac12; hours. However, they may require extra time to diagnose the problem with your water heater, particularly since so many of the surrounding parts work together. Speak with your plumber before the job to confirm the pre-hour price and the approximate length of the job. </p></div>
