Service Line Installation
Generally, for single-family residential service, YCNGA will extend a natural gas service line up to 300ft from the gas main to the customer's home at a cost of $175 for the tap and a $25 service origination fee ($200 total). An Aid-In-Construction (AIC) fee is applicable for all footage over the 300ft limit. Please see the Fee Summary to determine the amount per foot. The Authority may require a deposit based on the credit worthiness of the applicant.

The service line and metering equipment remain under the ownership and control of YCNGA. Ordinarily, the meter will be located on the side of the house, away from a driveway. However, YCNGA reserves the right to determine the specific location of the service line and metering equipment.

Customer Owned Piping (House Piping)
The term house piping refers to pipes installed between the meter and each natural gas appliance located in the home. The customer is responsible for the installation and maintenance of all piping from the meter to your natural gas equipment (i.e. space heater, water heater or stove, etc.). YCNGA is licensed to install house piping to any appliance that we sell. Please contact our Sales and Installation Department @ 803.323.5315 for additional questions regarding house piping.

House Piping Inspections
The installation of your house piping is subject to inspection and approval by an authorized representative of the municipal or county regulatory agency having jurisdiction. YCNGA is prohibited from installing a meter without evidence that the piping has been tested, inspected and approved in accordance with the appropriate codes.

Employees of YCNGA, and its agents, reserve the right to enter your yard or grounds to make installations, inspections or repairs, take readings, or for other necessary purposes regarding YCNGA-owned facilities. Any service installation up to and including the meter is subject to removal or change only by an authorized representative of YCNGA.
