Buried Yellow Gas Pipeline with tracer

Anonymous user 08/10/2025 - 4:40 PM

how deep does 3/4 inch yellow gas pipe including tracer wire be buried in Vaughan. Is it 18 inches .... 2 feet.... or more? This is to supply gas to a firepit on cement deck. Also need to bury electrical wire in same trench, how far apart does gas pipe and electrical wire need to be.

Are you a pro and able to answer this question?

Regardless of the size of the pipe in residential application 18" and in commercial application 20" . If the gasline is polyethylene copper tracing wiring is mandatory. Tracing wire should be running along the gas line ,it's recommended to tie them together(zip tie, electrical tape etc) for future tracking accuracy. Both end of the wire should rise along with the gas line risers .
