Town Pressure Test Requirements
You will need to contact your town inspector to schedule a pressure test of the natural gas piping inside your home or business before we can turn on service for the first time.
If gas service has been installed to your home or business, but has not been used for a period of time, your town may require a pressure test before we can turn on natural gas service again. Please see the chart below for information specific to your town.
