How to detect gas leak
Although gas leaks are uncommon, they are easy to detect. Here’s how you can spot one:
- Smell: We add a distinctive, sulfur-like, rotten egg odor so you can detect even small amounts of natural gas. Note: Do not rely solely on your sense of smell.
- Sound: Pay attention to hissing, whistling, or roaring sounds coming from underground or from a gas appliance.
- Sight: Watch for dirt spraying into the air, continual bubbling in a pond or creek, and dead or dying vegetation in an otherwise moist area.
