EXISTING SERVICE- STEPS FOR HAVING GAS SERVICE TURNED ON
If an existing service has been off for an extended period of time, or if we feel there may be a question as to the safety of the customer piping, Chester County Natural Gas Authority may require a pressure test be applied to your system (house) piping by you or your contractor and checked by our personnel before turning on the gas.
At the same time, if there are areas that need to be brought up to standard such as, but not limited to, cut-offs for each appliance, disconnection of appliance without safety valves, venting upgrades, etc., Chester County Natural Gas Authority may require those to be corrected before reconnection.
At the time you place your request, we will, as soon as possible, have our personnel meet you at the site to inform you of any upgrades, if required.
Please keep in mind that Chester County Natural Gas Authority does not want to delay your service being connected, but we do want to provide you with natural gas in a safe manner.
