Can you run gas lines through the attic?
Yes, CSST (flexible gas tubing) is commonly run through attics. However, it must be properly bonded to the home's electrical grounding system to prevent lightning hazards.

New Gas Line Installation
Switching from electric to gas appliances or adding a new gas fixture requires expanding your home's gas infrastructure. Properly sizing the pipe is critical; a line that is too small will starve your appliances of fuel, leading to poor performance and dangerous soot buildup.
When this service makes sense
We calculate the total BTU demand of all appliances on the system to determine the correct pipe diameter. We carefully route the new black iron or corrugated stainless steel tubing (CSST) through walls, attics, or crawlspaces, securely strapping the line and installing accessible shutoff valves at the fixture.

Common questions
Is it expensive to switch to a gas stove?
The cost depends entirely on how far the kitchen is from the existing main gas trunk line and how difficult the access is (e.g., open crawlspace vs. finished basement).
Do I need a permit to add a gas line?
Yes. Adding or modifying gas lines always requires a permit and inspection by the local building department to ensure absolute safety.
