Gaasiliitumine

Gaasiliitumine refers to the process of connecting a property or building to a natural gas distribution network. This allows for the supply of natural gas for heating, cooking, and other energy needs. The process typically involves obtaining necessary permits, coordinating with the gas utility company, and installing a gas meter and service line.

The initial steps for gaasiliitumine often begin with contacting the local gas distribution company to inquire about the feasibility and cost of connecting to their existing infrastructure. Depending on the distance to the nearest gas pipeline, there may be significant costs associated with extending the network. Once the connection is deemed possible, a formal application and contract are usually required.

Following the approval of the application, the utility company will schedule the installation of the gas service line from the main pipeline to the property boundary. Property owners are then responsible for the internal gas piping system within their building, which must be installed by a certified professional in accordance with relevant building codes and regulations. This includes the gas meter, which is typically installed by the utility company.

After the internal piping is complete and inspected, the gas utility company will perform a final inspection and connect the service line to the internal system, allowing natural gas to flow to the property. This enables the use of gas appliances and heating systems. The process can vary in duration and complexity depending on local regulations and the specific site conditions.
