Landlord and Multi-Tenant Information

Landlord Service Agreement

Nicor Gas has created a Landlord/Property Owner Service Notice and Agreement to efficiently manage the transfer of natural gas service between tenants and landlords. This program offers several benefits to you as a landlord:

  • Save time. You'll spend less time on the phone dealing with connection issues. 
  • End confusion about move-in dates, gas use and responsibility.

The landlord can fill out and submit the online Landlord/Property Owner Service Notice and Agreement below. If you need more information about the program, see the Frequently Asked Questions section below or contact us at G2landlord@southernco.com.

Landlord / Property Owner Service Notice and Agreement 6700 5-17

By submitting this Landlord/Property Manager Natural Gas Service Agreement (“Agreement”), you acknowledge and agree that Nicor Gas may place natural gas utility service (“Service”) for the premise(s) covered by this Agreement on a going forward basis in your name and continue Service to the premise when a tenant who had Service in the tenant’s name vacates the premise and there is no customer of record with such Service extending until such time that (a) Nicor Gas commences Service to a tenant leasing such premises or (b) Nicor Gas disconnects Service at such premises after being notified by you to make such disconnection.  You further agree to be fully responsible for payment of any and all Service at or to the premise when Service is in your name.

What are the fees?

There are no fees for this service.

How do I enroll?

Log in to My Account or use the Landlord/Property Owner Service Agreement. We can start the program for you online.

Can my tenants call to request a connection, disconnection or transfer of service?

Yes, but to ensure accurate billings, the landlord should complete the Landlord/Property Owner Service Agreement. Phone requests can result in delays and possibly being over- or under-billed for both the tenant and the landlord.

If I sell my rental property do I have to remove it from the Landlord program?

Yes. If you have a Landlord Service Agreement, you must notify Nicor Gas in writing at G2landlord@southernco.com within 10 days of the sale of your property. In the absence of a prearrangement with you (the Landlord/Property owner) to have the natural gas service put in our name between tenants, Nicor Gas may discontinue natural gas service to the premises when there is no customer of record regardless of the time of year or weather conditions. Please be advised that if there is no heat or if your property is not properly winterized, there is the potential that water pipes may freeze and burst, resulting in personal injury or property damage for which Nicor Gas will not be held liable.
