The most important thing to know about your gas line is that if there is a leak, it can be extremely dangerous and even fatal to stay inside. Natural gas has no odor and is also colorless, so suppliers are required to add a scent (similar to rotten eggs) to the gas to alert you if there is a leak.
Should you smell this scent or become aware of a leak, turn off the main valve immediately and leave the building right away. Staying inside can lead to severe injuries and death, so do not take it lightly.
Gas lines are also quite flammable. One of the main benefits of natural gas is how little can be used to get an extreme amount of energy out of it. That can also work against you when there is a leak or a risk of fire as a tiny spark can lead to a huge explosion. It is highly inadvisable to work on gas lines yourself.
If you smell natural gas, the first thing to do is get out of the building as quickly as possible. If you know how to shut off your gas valve safely and quickly, do so. Then call your gas provider. Once the situation is safe, call United Drain & Plumbing for 24/7 emergency repairs. Our estimates on gas line services are free.
