  • Why You Should Get a Plan

    Replacing section of natural gas supply line, repairing a gas safety shutoff valve and repairing a section of pipe to your furnace costs an average of $876‡ and replacing a 40 gallon water heater can cost an average of $1,400‡.

    Gas line problems can cause: 

    • rotten egg odor smell inside or outside your home 
    • inefficient or non-working heating and hot water system 
    • issues with gas appliances

    Problems with your hot water heater can cause: 

    • hot water to run out too quickly
    • no hot water for shower or washing 
    • noise and odor due to sediment build-up

    As a homeowner, you may be responsible for the gas line and hot water heater on your property, and you may have to arrange and pay for any necessary repairs. Homeowners are largely unaware that a gas line breakdown in their home is likely their responsibility to fix, often at significant cost. Note: If you suspect you have a gas leak, please leave the area and call your gas company or 911 immediately. ‡National average repair costs as of January 2023. No charge for covered repairs up to your service call benefit amount.
