Default Galvanized Gas Pipes in Attic
A friend who lives in Sunset Pointe, near the last 2 homes to burn down, decided to have the flex gas lines in the attic replaced with galvanized pipes.

The plumber said code requires galvanized pipes through the walls and only the attic has the flex stuff. The galvanized pipes are themselves an electrical ground and will take lightning strikes to the ground harmlessly.

Their cost of installation about $1,100. The peace of mind will be worth the cost to us.

Can anyone recommend some reputable plumbers so we can get some quotes?
