What should I do if I smell gas?
Get everyone out, leave doors open behind you, and don't use light switches, phones, lighters or anything that could spark inside the house. From a safe distance, call Duke Energy's gas emergency line or 911. Duke Energy supplies natural gas across much of Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky; if you're served by another gas utility, call its emergency number. Don't go back in until you're told it's safe.
New gas line installation
Converting an electric range or dryer to gas, adding a gas fireplace, a whole-house generator, or an outdoor kitchen or grill line all need a properly sized gas line, an appliance shut-off valve, a permit and a pressure test. Your plumber will check that your meter and existing piping can handle the added load.
Gas line materials
Older homes use black iron pipe. Newer installs often use corrugated stainless steel tubing (CSST), which is faster to run but must be bonded correctly for lightning protection. Underground runs to grills and outbuildings use approved polyethylene pipe with a tracer wire.

Do I need a permit for a gas line?
Yes. New gas piping and most gas line repairs need a permit, inspection and pressure test.
Can a plumber work on gas lines?
Yes, licensed plumbers routinely install and repair gas piping on the customer's side of the meter. The utility handles the meter and the street side.
How long does it take to add a gas line for a range?
Often a few hours for a straightforward run in an unfinished basement, plus scheduling the inspection.
Who do I call about a gas leak outside at the meter?
Your gas utility. Leaks at or before the meter are the utility's responsibility.
