I have a gas service pipe and meter, and want the meter relocated.
The ideal location for the gas meter is on the front of the house or 4 feet back on the side of the house. It should be 3 to 4 feet from any electric source, including electric meters, air-conditioning units or electric outlets.
To request relocation of one or two meters, call 866-556-6001. If you want to relocate three or more meters, contact the Developer's Task Force at rehabbers@peoplesgasdelivery.com.
We will contact you within three business days of receiving the request.

Please schedule your service pipe installation when the foundation is poured and back-filled. This way, our service crews can complete their work before other trades are on the job site.
For safety reasons, our crews will not install service if: debris, lumber or scaffolding are present in the work area, the requested meter location fails to meet minimum clearances, or the fuel line fails a pressure test. Working closely with your construction coordinator will help you avoid any unexpected delays.
