Commercial Gas Services

To assure that the correct size gas service, meter, and regulator will be installed, the customer or the HVAC/mechanical contractor must supply Wilson Energy with the total BTUH load and the system delivery pressure. Please e-mail the BTU's per appliance and the delivery pressure required to awilliamson@wilsonnc.org or fax to (252) 399.2191 when applying for service. At that time, the size and placement of the service will be determined.

Services CAN NOT be installed:

  • Inside fenced areas
  • Anywhere subject to damage
  • Within three feet of openings in buildings - including crawl spaces, windows, and doors.  A service can be installed within three feet of an existing vent if the vent has been permanently closed.
  • Within three feet of any ignition source - including electrical, television or telephone connections; electric meters; and furnaces.

Once the gas service has been installed, either the contractor or the owner/customer must call the Wilson Energy office at (252) 399.2432 when he or she is ready to have the meter set.  The meter will not be set near a vent if the vent has not been permanently closed. Once the meter has been set and the piping has passed inspection, the owner/customer must call Customer Service at (252) 399.2162 to have the gas service turned on.  The gas meter will not be set until requested.
