Gas Leak Detection
We locate gas leaks with electronic detectors and by testing fittings, then pressure-test the system to confirm it's sealed.
In older Lincoln Park buildings, we often find leaks at old unions, at original valves and on branches left from appliances removed decades ago. After the repair, the system is tested again so Peoples Gas can restore service.

Gas Leaks in Buildings With Many Meters
A Lincoln Park building may have a row of gas meters in the basement, one for each unit, plus one for shared equipment. When Peoples Gas shuts off service, tracing which piping belongs to which meter is the first job. We find the leak on the affected system, repair it and pressure-test it, so service can be restored to the right units without disturbing the others.
