Question 4

What is a gas pressure test and when is it required?

Accepted Answer

A gas pressure test is a safety inspection required by Columbia Gas or Peoples Gas before they will restore service after a shutoff. A certified technician pressurizes the gas line and monitors it for pressure drops that would indicate a leak. Steel City Natural Gas is licensed to perform this test and can coordinate directly with the utility to restore your service the same day in many cases.

Question 5

How do I know if my underground gas line is corroding?

Accepted Answer

Many Pittsburgh homes built before 1980 have unprotected steel gas service lines buried underground that corrode over time. Warning signs include a gas smell in your yard, a tagged or shut-off meter from the gas company, unexpectedly high gas bills, or a failed pressure test. Steel City Natural Gas can inspect your line and replace steel pipe with modern polyethylene pipe that won't corrode.
