Frequently asked questions

Is an earthquake gas shutoff valve required by law in Irvine?

Yes, many jurisdictions in Irvine and surrounding areas require earthquake gas shutoff valves on new construction and often when significant plumbing or gas line work is performed.

How does an earthquake gas shutoff valve work?

The valve contains a sensor that detects significant ground motion or vibrations characteristic of an earthquake. Upon detection, it automatically closes, stopping the flow of natural gas to your property.

Can I install an earthquake gas shutoff valve myself?

No, due to the inherent dangers of working with natural gas and the need for proper permitting and testing, installation must be performed by a licensed and certified plumbing professional in Irvine.

How often should an earthquake gas shutoff valve be inspected or replaced?

While the valves are designed for long-term reliability, it's recommended to have them inspected during routine plumbing maintenance. Replacement is typically only necessary if the valve is damaged or if local codes change significantly.

Do you work weekends?

We keep flexible hours, including evenings and weekends where we can.
