Plumbers

Federal Pipeline Regulations require that all individuals performing any maintenance on pipeline facilities be qualified for this type of work. The individual must be evaluated to assure they are capable of performing the tasks properly and safely, in accordance with Peoples’ procedures, while utilizing approved materials.

Certified plumbers and service line installers must complete a Service Installation Record (SIR) form and submit it to Peoples after they complete their work on the customer's service line and the line has been tested. They must also review the rules and regulations associated with installing pipelines and connections.

SAFETY UPDATE FOR WORKING WITH NEW METERS

Beginning August 2024, Peoples will begin installing a new brand of Itron meter on residential homes. These smaller, easier to handle meters are equipped with an excessive flow, slam shut device. If any appliances are purged wide open, the internal valve will automatically close, rendering this meter inoperable. Care must be taken to purge any appliance or internal line with a purge-burning device. Any valve beyond the meter must be cracked open slowly to avoid damage to the meter.

Please watch this video for important information regarding the new Intelis 250 Gas Meter:

New Construction Service Line Installations

Peoples will no longer accept the Express Service installation process. All new installations must be installed in accordance with the instructions found in the Installer's Guide. Please check the website often for any additional changes that may occur.

Standby Service

Standby Service is when a customer is receiving natural gas service from Peoples as a standby or back-up to an alternative fuel source (such as a well). To receive Standby Service from Peoples, the property’s service line must be outfitted with a three-way valve in accordance with Section 414 of the International Fuel Gas Code, and it must be installed by a qualified plumber.
