We are receiving a lot of calls for gas line estimates for gas generators. There are a several areas of plumbing that truly protect the health of the nation. All with severe issues if not handled properly. Sewer waste which is toxic. Backflow prevention which keeps your potable water clean. Natural gas, well in my mind it can explode. That may be the extreme but it is true. Hospital oxygen and natural gas both are flammable and again in my mind can explode.

I know I talk a lot about using a licensed plumber, so let’s compare it to the medical field. Do you want a foot surgeon working on your heart? I don’t think so. So why would you allow someone not licensed and insured to install, test, and make sure your gas line to your generator is working as it should.

I am all for getting the best bang for your buck, but I draw the line with gas that can go BANG.

This is one corner I would never cut short. Use a generator company that has a licensed plumber on staff or that outsources to a licensed plumbing company.

You can check any plumber or company in the state of Texas by going to this The Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners website.
