Gas Shutoff Valve Installation
Pacific Seismic Emergency Gas Shutoff Valve Installation
Starting at $625*
Earthquake Tech installs Pacific Seismic emergency gas shutoff valves designed to automatically stop the flow of gas during seismic activity, helping reduce the risk of leaks and fire.
A standard installation (¾” gas line with no splits behind the gas meter) typically runs $625, and includes:
- Installation of a Pacific Seismic shutoff valve
- Bracing of the gas line next to the valve to ensure proper activation
- Minor label permit through the Oregon E-Permitting Program
- Temporary gas shutoff (approximately 2 hours)
- Relighting of all pilot lights before completion
What to Expect
During installation, gas service will be turned off for approximately two hours. Before leaving, all pilot lights will be safely restored.
To provide an accurate assessment, please send a clear photo of your gas meter area.
You may also be asked:
- What gas appliances are in the home? (furnace, water heater, fireplace, etc.)
- Approximate age of those appliances
About the Valve
The Pacific Seismic shutoff valve is easy to reset after activation. Bracing the gas line ensures the valve functions properly during seismic movement while reducing the chance of accidental triggering.

“Steve was easy to schedule with and led us through the scheduling process without complication. He told us what to expect and made sure everything was working well before heading off. I particularly appreciated the patient explanation he gave for not only resetting the earthquake shutoff valve but also how to relight the water heater pilot light. Very pleased to have had Steve’s help with our project!”
