Gas Lines for Professional-Style Ranges
A six-burner range with a griddle can use far more gas than the stove it replaces. In older Evanston homes, the original line to the kitchen is often too small to feed it properly, so burners run weak when the oven and furnace are on too. We add up the total load, check the pipe size back to the meter and upsize the line where needed. Then the new range gets the flame it was designed for.
What Affects the Price of a New Gas Line
Length and route matter most. A short branch in an open basement is simple. A line through finished space, to an upper floor or out to the patio takes more work. If the existing pipe is too small for the new load, part of it may need upsizing. We plan the route and quote one flat price.

"Communication, information and installation went great. Price was very competitive. Shane explained everything extremely well and Alex installed hot water tank beautifully. Shortly after Alex left a gas leak from an old valve on the piping to the tank occurred and needed to be replaced, Alex came back same night and fixed it. This is a 5-Star company."

I filled out the online form and began texting with their team on the morning of Wednesday, 6/4/25, to arrange an evening appointment. I was told Friday evening, 6/6/25, was available. Based on the text exchange, it seemed the appointment was confirmed. [...]"
