Professional Earthquake Valve Installation in Canoga Park

Protect Your Los Angeles Home with Reliable Earthquake Valves

Living in Southern California, residents are no strangers to seismic activity. Earthquakes can strike without warning, leaving homes vulnerable to gas leaks and potential fires. Installing an earthquake valve on your gas line is one of the most effective ways to protect your property and family. These valves are engineered to automatically shut off the gas supply during tremors, providing an added layer of safety and security.

When it comes to safeguarding your property against the unpredictable nature of earthquakes, having the right plumbing solutions in place is crucial. At Kerrygold Plumbing, we specialize in the installation of earthquake valves to ensure your home is equipped to handle seismic events with minimal risk.

How Earthquake Valves Work

An earthquake valve is a small yet crucial device installed on your gas line. When the ground starts to shake due to seismic activity, the valve detects the movement and immediately shuts off the gas flow, preventing hazardous leaks that could lead to explosions or fires. Without an earthquake valve, your home’s gas system remains vulnerable during and after an earthquake.

Benefits of Earthquake Valves:

  • Automatic Gas Shut-off: Keeps your home safe without needing manual intervention.
  • Prevents Gas Leaks: Reduces the risk of dangerous leaks, especially when you might not be home to respond quickly.
  • Minimal Maintenance: Once installed, earthquake valves require very little upkeep, ensuring peace of mind year-round.

    "Thank you David and Douglas and Kerrygold Plumbing."
    Had a plumbing emergency yesterday- a burst pipe. Called Kerrygold plumbing and within an hour David and Douglas showed up and expertly fixed the problem. Both technicians were as professional and as friendly as could be. They did an excellent job and made sure everything was cleaned up, even though the mess was our fault. And considering it was a Saturday, the price was extremely reasonable. Thank you David and Douglas and Kerrygold Plumbing.
