Two plumbers came, and each estimate was
$2,000+ just to run the line! I had also thought of using propane, but it I'm kind of afraid of propane. I think I'll just wear layers instead.
That is ridiculous! My husband has installed gas lines and it NEVER cost that much. Get another estimate and don't let the know what others are saying. Where is the closest gas inlet...the oven...your dryer?? Outside at the gas meter? No way it should cost that much!
