GAS CORRECTIONS FAQs:

Everything You Need to Know ABOUT RED TAG CORRECTIONS

  • Corrections are generally documented and submitted to Enbridge. This submission often includes details of the repairs performed, along with any required supporting documentation.

  • No. Gas system corrections require specialized knowledge and must be performed by licensed professionals. Attempting to do the work yourself could result in unsafe conditions and may violate local codes.

  • If you believe the red tag notice was issued in error, you should contact Enbridge to discuss the issue. It’s also a good idea to consult with a licensed gas technician who can assess your system and provide professional advice.

  • Timeliness depends on the type of red tag:

    • Type A: Corrections should be made immediately, generally within 24 to 48 hours.

    • Type B: These should typically be addressed within 30 days. Regardless, it's best to correct any issues as soon as possible to ensure safety and compliance.

  • For red tag corrections, you should contact a certified gas technician or your preferred company.

    They can assess your situation, perform the necessary repairs, and guide you through the process to ensure that your gas system is safe and compliant.

  • The timeline for gas reactivation after a red tag correction can vary. Typically, once your certified technician completes the necessary repairs, a follow-up inspection is scheduled by the local regulatory authority or Enbridge. If the work passes inspection, service is usually restored within 24 hours to a few days. However, the exact timeframe depends on factors such as the extent of the repairs, scheduling availability for inspections, and local procedures. For the most accurate information, it's best to check directly with Enbridge and your contractor once your red tag correction is complete.
