* A standard tank set charge includes 0-20 feet of pipe, and other related materials and labor required for a complete and safe installation meeting all current gas codes.  Also a gas check inspection is done on the entire system to insure a safe operation.  A standard tank set is interpreted to mean a tank of various size (up to 1,000 gallons).  Size of tank will be determined by the GDGA, and installed the required distance from structures and property lines to comply with codes.  (10' ft. away from house or building structures, 10' ft. off property boundaries).  Also tank must be placed no further than 100' ft. from driveway so as to allow for winter-time filling.  Tank placement further than 20' ft. will cost $2.00 per foot extra.  The GDGA has the final decision as to tank set location.

All delinquent accounts will be subject to penalties and will be disconnected with a $50.00 CASH reconnect fee.  Any further service after disconnection may be subject to C.O.D service.

The GDGA provides 24 hour emergency service both for natural and propane customers.  After hours, week-ends, or Holiday service repairs and gas deliveries (Will Calls or C.O.D customers) will be charged $50.00.  There's a 150-gallon minimum gas delivery and price will be at current gas prices.
