Terms of Use

Effective date: July 12, 2026. These terms govern your use of this website. Please read them — especially Section 3, because gas emergencies and websites don’t mix.

1. Acceptance

By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy. If you don’t agree, don’t use the site.

2. The Website Is Informational

Everything published here — guides, tables, processes, safety content, pricing — is general information about gas services and conditions in Chicago, IL. It is not advice about your specific gas system. Every building is different; nothing on this site substitutes for an on-site assessment by a licensed professional, and no content here creates a contractor-client relationship. Prices shown are typical market ranges published for transparency: they are not binding quotes, and the written estimate you receive for your specific job is what governs.

3. Emergencies — Read This One

This website is not monitored for emergencies. If you smell gas or suspect an active leak: do not use this site’s forms, do not send email, do not operate switches or phones inside the building. Leave immediately, then from a safe distance call 911 and the Peoples Gas emergency line at 1-866-556-6002. Only after the scene is safe should anyone call a contractor.

4. Service Engagements

Actual service work is governed by the written estimate and any service agreement you receive from us — scope, price, permits, testing, and warranty terms live there, not here. Submitting a form or calling does not itself create an engagement; it starts a conversation.

5. Intellectual Property

All content on this site — text, tables, graphics, page designs, and layout — belongs to GasGuard Chicago. You may view and print pages for personal, non-commercial use. Copying, republishing, scraping, or repurposing site content (including for training datasets or competing websites) without written permission is prohibited.

6. Acceptable Use

  • Don’t use the site for anything unlawful;
  • Don’t attempt to disrupt, probe, or overload the site;
  • Don’t submit forms with false identity or impersonate anyone;
  • Don’t harvest or scrape content or data by automated means.

7. Third-Party Links

Links to outside resources — the utility, the city, safety organizations — are provided for convenience. We don’t control those sites and aren’t responsible for their content or practices.

8. Disclaimer of Warranties (Website)

The website is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including accuracy, completeness, or fitness for a particular purpose. Codes, utility procedures, and market prices change; we work to keep content current but can’t guarantee it at every moment. (Warranties on actual service work, where offered, are stated in your written service documents — this section is about the website.)

9. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, GasGuard Chicago is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of this website or reliance on its general content. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited, and nothing here alters obligations we owe under a written service agreement or applicable law regarding work actually performed.

10. Indemnification

You agree to hold GasGuard Chicago harmless from claims arising out of your misuse of this website or violation of these terms.

11. Governing Law & Venue

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute relating to the website shall be brought in the state or federal courts located in Cook County, Illinois.

12. Severability & Entire Agreement

If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest remain in effect. These terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement regarding website use.

13. Changes

We may update these terms; the current version, with its effective date, always lives on this page. Continued use after changes means acceptance.
