A friend has an order in with the local natural gas company to run gas from the line at the road to his house (no gas there now - uses oil to heat). He asked, and I didn't know, how they make the connection and the tap. I'm pretty sure that they wouldn't turn the gas off for the whole road as that would mean visting potentially hundreds of houses to ensure pilots, etc. were working once it was turned on again not counting the inconvenience to all of those existing customers.
When they install the gas lines in the first place, do they put a T in and cap it where they think there might eventually need to be service? Or, are they able to add one as needed? If so, how?
Curious minds want to know!
