MLGW Offers Free Pilot Light Safety Inspections in September
September 16, 2024

New feature allows customers to opt-in for service order reminders for their appointments

To ensure gas appliance safety, MLGW offers pilot light safety inspections. Customers are encouraged to begin scheduling appointments. Inspection appointments during the month of September are free.

After September 30, customers are charged a $55 fee which covers up to three gas heating appliances. Each additional appliance will be an extra $16. The service is free to physically challenged customers and seniors (60 years and older).

To schedule an appointment with a service advisor, customers can call 544-6549 to choose a convenient date and time. MLGW's Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system can also be used to schedule appointments with the customer's 16-digit account number or telephone number.

Through December 31, customers can call in and request a pilot light-up appointment and can opt-in for service order reminders for their appointments. Customers can choose to have reminders sent via email, text or phone call. In addition to the notifications, customers will also receive a survey after the work is completed so that they can rate the service order appointment experience.
