 Installing a gas line in a townhouse (in-between unit) sitting on a concrete slab
Author: rpendurkar (NC)

My townhouse is a middle unit and has gas existing connection for heating, hot water and fireplace. Is it possible to draw a additional gas line (using professional installer) to the kitchen (which shares a wall with neighbor) for a gas stove. Currently the stove is electric. The kitchen does not have a exterior wall.

This is in Charlotte, NC

Thanks

The idea is good, but it depends on HOW the existing pipe could be accessed and how the new line would be run.

a new gas range may not be allowed

first ...... check with your local building dept.

then, IF allowed, contact your HOA for permission

THEN ...... get a licensed bonded insured contractor for a proposal

anything is possible.

CSST is a flexible approved gas piping system.

while it requires quite a bit of protection from damage it does make some installations easier.

Personally I like running them through the floor just in front of the drywall

This leaves more room for clearance depending on the manufacturer gas and electrical allowances
