Campbell Earthquake Gas Shut-Off Valve Installation — Affordable Safety for Seismic Protection

Campbell homeowners are choosing to install earthquake gas shut-off valves as part of their home safety strategy—and with good reason. These automatic safety devices detect seismic activity and shut off the natural gas supply to your home to prevent fires, leaks, and explosions during an earthquake.

In a city like Campbell, located in the heart of Santa Clara County, seismic upgrades are essential. Many homes—especially those in areas like Downtown or San Tomas—are decades old and built before modern seismic plumbing requirements. A gas shut-off valve helps safeguard your home by automatically closing the gas line the moment ground movement exceeds a magnitude of 5.2 or higher.

• Required by Code: Often mandated during remodels, ADUs, or utility reconnections.
• Boosts Peace of Mind: Functions without electricity or user input.
