(A) Whenever an inspection shall reveal a condition unsafe to life or property, the City Clerk shall notify the consumer of what is necessary to correct the unsafe condition and shall not permit gas to be turned on until all such conditions have been corrected, remedied and made safe. The City Clerk may make subsequent inspections and tests of gas piping, gas installations and gas appliances when he or she believes, or has reason to believe, that any appliance’s piping or venting is in an unsafe condition to life or property and the City Clerk shall order the gas utility to discontinue the supply of gas to any consumer when any such condition is found and until the same is remedied.
(B) The consumer shall be responsible for the installations, appliances, apparatus and equipment on his or her side of the point of delivery, and for the natural gas after it passes said point of delivery. The consumer assumes the duties of having inspected his or her house piping, appliances, apparatus, equipment, chimneys and flues and every part thereof to see that the same are clean and in proper working order. In the event the consumer finds the gas service to be defective, he or she should immediately notify the utility to that effect.
