Gas ranges, tankless heaters, generators, fire pits, dryers. Licensed gas piping installed and tested right, because this is the one trade where 'close enough' isn't.
Gas piping is legally and practically different from every other home project: it has to be sized, installed, pressure-tested, and permitted by a licensed contractor. Nate holds Florida Certified Plumbing Contractor license CFC1425972, which covers gas piping, and has been running gas lines in Alachua County homes for two decades.
Leave the house first. Don't flip switches, don't light anything, don't start the car in an attached garage. From outside, call your gas utility's emergency line, then call us at (352) 316-3745 to repair and pressure-test the line once the utility has made it safe.
The most common gas problem we find isn't a leak, it's starvation: a tankless heater or generator connected to a line that was never sized for it. The appliance short-cycles, error codes stack up, and the installer blames the unit. Correct pipe sizing is arithmetic plus code knowledge, and it's the first thing we check.
Yes, gas piping is permitted and inspected work in Florida, and it must be done by a licensed contractor. We pull the permit and meet the inspector.
Yes. Generator hookups are one of our most requested jobs, and North Florida storm season is the reason. Get it plumbed before the cone shows up.
Very often, yes. Undersized gas supply starves tankless units. We measure, resize the line if needed, and the 'broken' heater usually comes back to life.
