Heights Plumbing, Heating & Cooling installs, repairs and tests natural gas piping for homes and businesses across North Jersey. That covers new runs for ranges, dryers, gas fireplaces, grills, pool heaters and generators, plus repairs to existing piping that has corroded or been damaged.
Gas work is licensed work. We are licensed and insured in New Jersey, we pull permits, we pressure test every run, and we coordinate the inspection. Our staff includes a mechanical engineer, so sizing and pressure are calculated, not estimated.
Gas Piping Is Not a Place to Improvise
Adding a gas range, converting a dryer or running a line to a grill sounds simple until you account for pipe sizing, total appliance load, shutoff placement, corrosion protection and code-required testing. An undersized line starves appliances; a poorly made joint leaks.
Older homes across North Jersey often have black iron piping that has been extended piecemeal over decades, with abandoned runs, capped stubs and connections nobody can explain. We map what is there, correct what is wrong, and document the result.
What Our Gas Line Service Includes
For new installations, we calculate the total connected load and the length of each run, size the pipe accordingly, and route it safely with proper support and accessible shutoffs. We install in black iron or approved flexible gas piping depending on the application, then pressure test the system and arrange the municipal inspection.
For repairs, we survey the existing system for corrosion, damaged threads, improper materials and leaking joints. We repair or replace the affected sections, cap abandoned runs properly, and retest. If we find an active leak, we address safety first and shut down the affected section.

Gas Lines FAQs
Do I need a permit to add a gas line?
In essentially every North Jersey municipality, yes. Gas piping work requires a permit and an inspection. We handle both as part of the job.
Can you run a line to my grill or pool heater?
Yes. We run outdoor gas lines with approved materials, proper burial or support, and an accessible shutoff at the appliance.
What if I smell gas right now?
Leave the building, do not use light switches, phones or anything that could spark, and call your gas utility from outside. Once the utility has made the area safe, call us at 201-245-7772 for the repair.
How do I know my gas line is sized correctly?
It comes down to total appliance load and pipe length. We calculate both. A common symptom of undersized piping is appliances that underperform when several are running together.
Do you handle the appliance hookup too?
Yes. We can install the piping, connect the appliance, and verify safe startup and combustion in one visit.
