AI Summary

This bill further defines "gas fitting" under the regulation of plumbing in Massachusetts. The key change is to expand the definition of gas fitting to include the installation, alteration, and replacement of piping systems that convey radon gas or any type of fuel gas, such as methane, for power, refrigeration, heating, or lighting purposes. This includes connecting and testing gas fixtures, appliances, and other equipment, as well as maintaining and repairing these gas systems.
