The Benefits of Preventative Maintenance to Your Gas Pipes

1/31/2019

2 Comments

 
When it comes to using natural gas, most businesses simply use it—without thinking about it. Often it isn’t until there’s a problem that your company will call someone like MBS for help. But from no hot water to the unmistakable smell of a gas leak, many problems with natural gas can be prevented. How? Through proper bi-annual inspections of your gas pipelines.

About Gas Pipelines
Gas pipelines are a valuable resource in California. And not too long ago, natural gas pipelines were still being made of galvanized steel. But while that wasn’t a problem at the times, pipelines made of galvanized steel aren’t built to last. They’re sensitive to the elements and prone to rust and leaking. Only able to last about twenty five to thirty years, these pipes need to be replaced by more modern piping technology.

Extending The Life of Your Pipelines
Do you have more modern natural gas pipelines? Even they need to be inspected for safety bi-annually. That’s because through the use of regular inspections and service, your business will not only save money on repairs and maintenance. The life of your equipment could be extended while your energy bills will fall lower. By engaging MBS Engineering to provide regular inspections and evaluations of plant and equipment, you can save money on repairs because your equipment will be properly monitored and preventative maintenance will be conducted before expensive problems arise.

Our aim is to enable our client’s mechanical systems to operate reliably at all times. And MBS offers tailored maintenance programs that are designed specifically for each client. We are a specialty contractor who can safely tackle the most complex problems and provide effective solutions. Ready to schedule your bi-annual inspection? Contact the experts at MBS now.

It was interesting when you talked about how gas pipelines should be inspected on a bi-annual basis. According to my knowledge, it's also beneficial to use a valve manifold box to more easily maintain and upgrade the gas lines in a facility. Now that I think about it, I'd be interested to learn more about the differences in care for residential and industrial gas lines.
