Accidents may occur if a skilled LP GAS technician fails to perform a complete system check, from the propane tank to the system pilot orifices. Douglass Distributing must verify the integrity of your propane gas system by conducting a leak check, as defined by the National Fuel Gas Code, and Texas Railroad Commission, and document the results. The following situations call for a system inspection and leak check:
- New system of new customer.
- Occupancy change.
- System interruption (making repairs of modifications, changing regulators, turning off the gas, etc.) including “Out of Gas” situations.
- Suspected gas leak.
Douglass Distributing does not charge for conducting a leak check under these circumstances:
- New tank setting, existing system.
- Scheduled Delivery Customer (random test).
- Suspected leak on our equipment.
- Out of gas – scheduled delivery customer (Auto Fill).
Douglass Distributing personnel will make necessary repairs to the system from the storage tank to the outlet of the service valve. The customer assumes responsibility for any damages to said equipment arising from negligence, carelessness, or abuse. Repairs from the outlet of the service valve to appliances will be the customer’s responsibility and you will need to contact a qualified service provider for those repairs.
