Gas reaches 9% of households in Indialantic. Where it is present it works the same way as anywhere; there is simply much less of it here than in most of the country.
Read this first
Gas of any kind reaches only 9% of households in Indialantic, so most homes there have no gas line at all. Where one exists it is more often a tank than a main, which puts the installation on the property rather than behind a meter.
Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey table B25040; the service line boundary is 49 CFR § 192.3.
If you smell gas right now
Leave the building on foot. Do not use a phone or a light switch inside. Call 911 and your gas utility from somewhere else, and do not call us — we are a referral service, not an emergency line. The full list, in order.
How Indialantic is supplied
Where most homes are electric, gas work is a specialty and less common, and the properties that do have gas are often the older or the larger ones.
The rules do not change with the local share. If there is a mains connection there is a service line ending at the meter outlet under 49 CFR § 192.3, and if there is a tank the whole installation is the owner’s.
| Households in Indialantic | Share |
|---|---|
| Utility (mains) gas | 8% |
| Bottled or tank propane | under 1% |
| Electricity | 89% |
| Fuel oil and kerosene | 0% |
| Wood and everything else | 3% |
Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-year estimates, table B25040 (house heating fuel), 2023 release. Universe: 6,043 occupied housing units. B25040 records what heats the house, which is the best available guide to whether a property has mains gas or a tank — it does not count service lines directly. Service line definition: 49 CFR § 192.3, via PHMSA interpretation PI-12-0003.
Across Florida as a whole, 5% of households are on mains gas and 1% on tank propane. Indialantic sits 3 points above the state on mains and 1 point below it on propane. That distance from the state average is the whole argument for publishing a town figure at all.
Before anyone digs on the property
PHMSA describes excavation damage as the leading cause of pipeline incidents, and puts the effect of one free phone call plainly: someone who calls 8-1-1 before they dig has a 99 percent chance of avoiding an incident, injury, harm to the environment and even death.

What to ask whoever quotes it
Ask how much gas work they actually do, not whether they can. Gas is separately licensed in most jurisdictions and plenty of capable plumbers do very little of it.

Checking a plumber in Florida
Florida licenses are issued by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, which publishes a public search you can use before work begins. Florida distinguishes state-certified contractors from registered contractors, who are limited to particular counties.
Gas work is separately permitted and separately licensed in most jurisdictions, so ask specifically about gas rather than plumbing in general.
For repair work, not for a suspected leak.If you can smell gas, leave and call 911 or your utility from outside; this is the wrong number for that. For everything else — a line, a meter, an appliance connection — we will route you to a contractor covering your area, free of charge to you. We serve Indialantic for plumbing that has nothing to do with gas.
