Iowa Natural Gas Association

Mission Statement
Promote the use of natural gas to the fullest possible extent for the mutual interests of our members and public.

About Us
The INGA is comprised of natural gas utilities, heating and appliance dealers, municipal gas systems, equipment manufacturers, distributor, and suppliers, advertising and media organizations and affiliated members from the State of Iowa.

The association has supported and promoted many natural gas activities during the past 25 years. The association was first organized in the early 80’s and was known as the Iowa Blue Flame Association. In the late 90’s the name was changed to Iowa Natural Gas Association.

The association promotes the safe installation of gas appliances, piping and venting operations. Copies of the latest National Fuel Gas Code 2006 (NFPA 54) are available. We have conducted seminars at various locations in the state on its application.
