HOW DOES GAS PIPING WORK?

Gas piping systems rely on pressure to deliver natural gas. Gas flows from higher to lower pressure. After the natural gas is extracted, it travels along a highway-like system of pipes to end up in distribution systems that bring the gas into your home.

Gas runs from the distribution line, otherwise known as a mainline, into a home or other building in a service line, which the natural gas utility is responsible for maintaining. Customers are responsible for all equipment and gas supply lines downstream of this service line.

The gas passes through a pressure regulator to lower its pressure before it enters your home. The gas pressure becomes slightly higher than the air pressure when you switch on your gas furnace or stove, so the gas flows out of the burner and into the heating unit to ignite it.
