Bottom tenth

$44,150

Top tenth

The national median is $63,800 a year, the bottom tenth earn $44,150 or less and the top tenth $108,420 or more, in the 2025 survey. The federal wage survey has no separate gasfitter category: it counts plumbers, pipefitters and steamfitters as one group, and gas work sits inside that. Gas utility technicians are counted elsewhere.
