It’s good to have the conversation about whether or not plumbed natural gas will actually be used in the new building.  It’s expensive to install and if there isn’t a compelling need, why go to the expense?

 

To answer your question – yes, plumbed natural gas is allowed in new science buildings at Davis.

 

Best,

Debbie

All,

 

Is the installation of plumbed natural gas still allowed in new science buildings?

 

I assume so. On the other hand…

 

I was wondering if anyone absolutely prohibits the installation of natural gas and if so, why?

 

Many thanks,

 

Chris
