You will soon be starting a construction project and would like to obtain natural gas to supply the building and/or provide temporary heating during construction. To get natural gas at your construction site, simply follow these five steps:
First, you must find out if Énergir gas network is available near your construction site by contacting Énergir. If your site isn't near the gas network, we'll assess the feasibility of an extension. We consider all the options for extending our network to new construction projects, so be assured that your case will be given the utmost attention.
Once the availability of Énergir gas network is confirmed, your Énergir representative and engineer will analyze your needs in detail, advise you of the best technology solutions and tell you about the grants you may be eligible for. After signing your contract, you'll be ready to get connected to the gas network.
Even if your project doesn't use natural gas as its permanent source of energy, you can still use it to supply a heating unit for your construction site. That saves you the inconvenience of installing propane gas tanks.
Énergir will appoint a general construction contractor to connect your project to the gas network. Your sales representative and his/her colleagues will supervise it and keep you informed each step of the way.
Only natural gas certified heating contractors are qualified to install your appliances. For top-notch work, be sure to hire an Énergir Certified Natural Gas Partner. They are independent contractors and members of the Corporation of Master Pipe-Mechanics of Quebec (CMMTQ). As such, they are subject to rigorous quality control and must have a contractor's license from the Régie du bâtiment.
