Where should the gas line be constructed?

One of the most important decisions you will have to make when constructing a gas line will be its location. And, for safety reasons, this will require you to look at laying the gas line outside of your home, on paths like courtyards, boundary walls, or perimeter walls. There are some reasons why outside will often be the best option:

Safety: Indoor gas lines have the greatest risk of leaks, and gas buildup could be catastrophic in a home. An outdoor gas line reduces the risk of such dangerous scenarios.

Access & Maintenance: An exterior lines typically allows for better inspection and maintenance options. If you have to schedule any maintenance or repairs, knowing your gas line is outside – enables a much easier inspection to limit complications down the road.

Weather Concerns: With Miami’s high humidity, as well as the potential for internal shifting in soil, underground lines can shift and sink over the years. Accessing a gas line that runs under a building can be troublesome when repairs or inspections are required. Having the installation external to your building is that much more convenient when issues arise.
