Becoming A Customer
If you’re currently not a Toccoa Natural Gas customer and desire gas service, follow these steps.
Step 1. Natural Gas Availability
Call the Utilities Department at the City of Toccoa/Toccoa Natural Gas at one of the numbers listed below.
Step 2. Tap Application
Once a natural gas line tap is deemed possible, download and print a tap application or get a tap application from any of our customer service representatives, fill out the required information and email or send via US Postal Service mail to the City of Toccoa or the Toccoa Natural Gas office in Westgate Plaza, Franklin, North Carolina.
Step 3. Toccoa Natural Gas Superintendent on Location
After we receive your completed tap application, a Toccoa Natural Gas Representative will make an appointment to discuss the location of your service connection and meter. If you have no preference, we will decide.
Step 4. Tap Installation Scheduled and Installed
After the application has been approved and payment received, we will schedule a tap installation. *Note-Payment must be received prior to tap installation.
Step 5. Tap Made
After tap installation, customers must pressure test their line. A pressure test must be conducted and reviewed prior to the gas being turned on. A Pressure Test must hold 40 pounds of pressure for 4 hours and be inspected by a Toccoa Natural Gas technician.
To schedule the pressure test inspection contact the Utilities Department at 706-282-3300.
Step 6. Appliance Installation
Appliances may be installed prior to step 5 but cannot be hooked up during the pressure test.
Step 7. Appliance Inspection
The final step is an appliance inspection. We must inspect your piping and connections prior to turning on the service.
Step 8. Residential New Service Agreement
Once steps 1-7 have been completed, call your local representative to arrange your New Service Agreement with Toccoa Natural Gas and get ready to save on your utility bills year round.
