∙ 12y agoGas piping in California will have to have 18" of ground cover over it. So and 18" trench with a one inch pipe will be an inch too short. 2007 upc where damage is not likely to happen, steel gas piping can be instaled with 12" of ground cover. Warning it will be up to the inspector to decide where damage might be a problem.

∙ 14y agoDepending where you are at but most gas lines from mains to homes are about 18" to 30" deep. I would call locates to have them find out exactly where and how deep your gas line is and its free even if all you want to do is know.
