CoServ and Atmos may also perform a type of gas pressure test. HOWEVER, neither of the gas utility companies will locate or repair a gas leak. The CoServ and Atmos technicians are not licensed plumbers and are not authorized to make repairs on anything other than the meter itself. They can only lock the meter should a leak be determined. After a leak is repaired by a licensed plumber, a gas pressure test must be performed and left in test mode for a city official to confirm the system is good.
If the pressure drops during this time, that signifies a leak somewhere in your gas line. At that point, we’ll move on to locating leak or leaks and then determining what needs to take place to make a proper repair. Typically multiple tests will be performed on every visit to validate the test findings and/or to ensure there is not any additional leaks after the repair.
If you own one of the following types of property, call Earl’s Plumbing to schedule your annual gas pressure test:
- Any public, charter, or accredited private school (including universities)
- Multi-family residential buildings
- Hotels
- Daycare centers
- Hospitals or other healthcare facilities
- Gyms and fitness centers
It should be noted that Atmos and CoServ can do a pressure test but they are not authorized to locate the leak(s) make any repairs to your system.
Please note that if you call us BEFORE you contact the utility provider, we can usually get your gas leak repaired and gas back on the same day. However, if the meter is locked by one of the utility providers then your interruption will be a little more prolonged because additional testing, permits and city inspection will be required. We’ll cover all of your options and can even walk you through how to turn the gas off until we arrive if you call us first.
