To ensure residents' safety and the safety of our crews, PECO may need to temporarily shut off natural gas service for a short period – about 4 to 8 hours – while crews install the new service line to homes.

Residents will need to provide access to natural gas appliances or equipment in their homes to allow PECO to perform this work, and later that day to restore service and relight any appliances.

At this time, PECO also will be relocating any indoor natural gas meters to the exterior of customer homes.

This work will be performed by Miller Bros, a qualified PECO contractor. Contact Joe
Staedt of Miller Bros at 610-574-0010 with questions about the work.

Any areas impacted on residential properties will be repaired, the streets will be repaved, and all areas will be restored to their original condition.

PECO will begin to restore residential property in the month following the completion of our work to install the new natural gas equipment.

Work to repair and repave area roadways will begin within 45 days following the completion of the natural gas main and service line installation work, weather permitting.
