Want to find out more about the Spring Creek Natural Gas Expansion project? How natural gas can provide the affordable comfort your home deserves? Or what to consider when converting or installing appliances? The answers to these questions and more can be found below.
You are responsible for all beyond the meter installation costs, including all in-home costs necessary to facilitate the conversion to natural gas and any appliance conversions.
All beyond the meter costs are in addition to any other applicable rates or charges included in Southwest Gas’ tariff. One such tariff charge, which is unique to Spring Creek Expansion Area residential customers, is a $35 per meter per month Infrastructure Expansion Charge (IEC).
This charge begins once your Southwest Gas meter is set and will be included on your monthly bill, regardless of your monthly usage. Similarly, commercial customers receiving natural gas service in the Spring Creek Expansion Area will be assessed a monthly IEC of $70 per meter per month, regardless of monthly usage.
In addition, Southwest Gas offers pre-conversion inspections.

Southwest Gas delivers natural gas directly to homes through an underground pipeline system. This system includes three essential parts: the main line which services your neighborhood; a service line that connects the main line to your gas meter; and house lines to deliver gas from the meter to your appliances.
