Signs of a Gas Leak

Most homes have at least one gas appliance. Many furnaces, water heaters, and stoves run on gas. You may also have a gas line running to your fireplace or outdoor fire pit. Generally speaking, natural gas is a safe, reliable fuel source. However, gas leaks can happen. As a homeowner, it is important that you recognize the signs of a gas leak so that you can call in a professional plumber and have the problem resolved as quickly as possible.

Signs of a gas leak include:

• The smell of rotten eggs or sulfur
• Whistling sounds near your gas line
• Bubbling from gas lines if underwater
• Dying houseplants or other vegetation near the leak
• Nausea, light-headedness, or headaches
• Visible damage to a gas line

If you suspect you have a gas leak, you should turn off all appliances, open all windows, and evacuate the premises. You want to avoid using electrical appliances, including your cell phone, as this can start a fire. Once you and your family are safe, call your gas company’s emergency line, the fire department, or, if necessary, 911. Once you have seen to your safety, call our licensed plumbers for professional gas leak repair.
