The new F-35 fighter jets are flying to The Valley, and RP Gas Piping<\/a> is pleased to be part of the welcoming party.<\/p>\n

The F-35 Lightening II, which comes in three variants, will be the future of the U.S. tactical air support for decades. Glendale\u2019s own Luke Air Force Base<\/a> will be transformed into a training facility for these new jets, and R P Gas is excited to be assisting in their transformation.
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

Part of the transition includes the relocation and addition of new underground natural gas line system, which will provide power throughout the facility.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s where we come in.<\/p>\n

R P gas began construction on this project at the beginning of March 2013 with our fleet of professionals, trucks and equipment that ranges from excavation and compaction, to safety and inspection equipment. We are fusing PE (polyethylene) gas lines, providing main shut off points, and metering locations to support the needs of the new facility and adjoining buildings with the plan of future expansion.<\/p>\n

R P Gas was sought out by Archer Western Contractors<\/a> who brought us on for our extensive knowledge in installing natural gas lines, our small business certification and our ability to conduct our self according to the strict safety guidelines and commitment to excellence required for a Federal project. The project is expected to continue through the end of the year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
