Gas Line Projects in Skokie
In postwar homes, new gas work often ties into old piping.
Old Black Iron, New Appliances
We check the existing pipe before tying a new branch into it.
Moving the Laundry
Moving a dryer upstairs or across the basement means a new branch line.
Generators for Pumps
A generator keeps sump and ejector pumps running in an outage.
Will Your Old Gas Line Handle a New Appliance?
Skokie homes from the 1950s were piped for a furnace, a water heater, a range and maybe a dryer. Add a high-output range, a generator or a grill, and the original line may not deliver enough gas when everything runs at once. We add up the total load and check the pipe size from the meter. If needed, we upsize part of the line, so every appliance gets the gas it needs.

"Communication, information and installation went great. Price was very competitive. Shane explained everything extremely well and Alex installed hot water tank beautifully.
