COST FACTORS
Every home and project is different, so the only way to get a firm number is to have a licensed Academy Air technician assess your property. In general, these are the factors that most affect the price of a gas line installation:
The distance between your gas meter and the new appliance or fixture has a direct impact on how much pipe, labor, and time the installation requires.
Depending on the route and local code requirements, we may recommend black iron pipe or corrugated stainless steel tubing (CSST) — each with its own material cost.
Connecting a single appliance is a simpler job than sizing and running a line that needs to serve several appliances at once.
Most St. Louis-area municipalities require a permit and a follow-up inspection for new gas piping, which Academy Air handles on your behalf.
Lines that need to be run underground, through finished walls, or through a tight crawl space take more time and labor than an open, easily accessible route.
If we’re also connecting or setting the new appliance itself, that additional labor is factored into your total quote.

FAQ
Yes. Academy Air pulls the required permit for new gas piping and coordinates the municipal inspection so you do not have to manage that process yourself.
You will need a new gas line whenever you are adding a gas-powered appliance that is not already connected — a range, dryer, water heater, pool heater, fire pit, or standby generator are the most common reasons homeowners call us.
A properly installed and maintained gas line can last 30 years or more. Choosing the right pipe material for your specific application and having it installed to code are the two biggest factors in how long it will hold up.
A straightforward line to a single appliance can often be completed in a single day. Larger projects — like running gas to a detached garage, pool heater, or standby generator — may take longer depending on the length of the run and whether trenching is required.
We do not recommend it. Even a small leak at a stove connection can create a serious safety hazard, and most municipalities require a licensed plumber to pull a permit for gas work. Our technicians can connect your range safely and pressure-test every joint before we leave.
Many older homes in the St. Louis area have gas lines buried in the yard between the meter and the house or an outbuilding. If you are not sure where your lines run, an Academy Air technician can locate and map your existing piping before any new work begins.
Gas line work should always be handled by a licensed plumber or gas fitter, even for something as simple as a stove hookup. Academy Air’s technicians are licensed to run and connect gas lines throughout the St. Louis area and will pull any required permit before starting work.
