Default Do gas has a shut-off valve inside house?

I finished my basement last year. Now looking back, I am not sure if
my house has a gas shutoff valve inside the house at the entrance. I
may overlooked the valve and did not leave an access door.

The gas servers the furnace and the firplace. There is shutoff valve

at
the furnace, but not at the fireplace.

The gas meter is outside, just before entering the house, and is

easily
accessible. Do I need a inside shutoff valve? If so, then I may have

to
take off the drywall and some framing to find the valve and make an
access door.

Thanks for any tips.


I would expect that you would have a shutoff for the fireplace as well
however that I suppose could be in the fireplace.


NEAR the fireplace maybe inside I sure hope not.
You must have a valve for the fireplace or is it burning all of the time?
My gas fireplace had a key that turned the gas on and off.


For the fireplace I have a valve in the basement another one in the wall
near the fireplace. Then another in the fireplace.
