how to detect gas leak

Natural gas is usually a safe and efficient energy source. However, a gas leak in your home can be dangerous. Not only is the gas highly flammable and a risk to your property, it’s also a risk to your family’s health.

The good news is that it can usually be fixed quickly and easily once you locate the source.

Signs of a gas leak

Sometimes you can smell a sulphurous odour that you may recognise as gas. However, gas can also be odourless, so you might not realise you have a leak straight away.

Here are some other signs to look for:

  • If you know where your gas lines are, check them for damage. Be aware that, even if you can’t see anything, they might still be damaged.
  • Listen for a whistling or hissing sound where gas could be escaping.
  • Check whether your houseplants are suddenly dying, as escaped gas can kill plants.
