WE will let you know once your contract has been approved and you have been assigned a Site ID.
YOU will use your Site ID to set up a retailer account at www.ucahelps.alberta.ca.
*Tip* The sooner your retailer sets up your account, the sooner they will notify ATCO Gas. Please do not ask the retailer to post-date the start of your account. This can create delays.

YOU let us know your site is ready for inspection. Ensure your site is ready for inspection by reviewing the Site Readiness requirements.

YOU or YOUR heating contractor will need to obtain a proper permit from the local governing authority. This approved permit will need to be provided to our Natural Gas Distribution division.
