Need for shut-off valve for gas line under the slab
Our new kitchen addition has a 30k BTU griddle in the middle and is
serviced by an under-slab line. Shouldn't there be a shut-off valve in the line right before it dives under the slab? Don't codes or common sense call for one? If the under-slab line develops a leak, the entire house supply would need to be shut down if there isn't a shut off valve. All the other gas lines in the house are located in the attic. Any suggestions? Thanks, Ted |
