CSST Gas Piping Needs to be Grounded to Stop Pin Holes Leading to Fires.

The yellow gas pipe in your home needs to be grounded. This is done with a Dielectric Union located outside of your home after the gas meter. Then you will need a clamp on the black gas pipe on the inside of the home. We then run #8 copper wire from the clamp to the electrical panel or to the City Water Main.

If this is not done you may have a lightning strike which can put a pin hole in the CSST Piping. This has caused homes to start on fire and we all need to make sure we stop this craziness and protect our homes. Call Paradigm to see if you have this unsafe condition. Look at the pictures to see what happens when these gas piping systems are not grounded and when lightning strikes.
