Gas Line Safety & Warning Signs

What Signs Indicate It’s Time to Repair Or Replace A Gas Line?

Your home needs regular maintenance to function effectively and efficiently, including regular inspections of your gas lines. Usage over time results in wear and tear and parts will need to be replaced to prevent gas leaks.

Any rust or corrosion on your gas line calls for professional service by a licensed gasfitter, because seals at the joints wear down over time leading to corrosion. Additionally, be on the lookout for pinched or cracked gas lines. Any noticeable damage to a gas lines requires immediate replacement.

At KaiTech Plumbing & Heating we want you to be well protected, this means instead of trying to patch small cracks we will often recommend replacing your line (especially an older gas line) to ensure the safety of your home and family.

How Can You Tell If You Have A Gas Line Leak?

Natural gas does not have an odor, but municipal supplies add a smell to the gas for safety reasons. If you have a gas leak, you will smell a distinct rotten egg scent. Trace the scent's origin to ensure that it is coming from the gas lines, such as from a hot water heater, gas stove or BBQ.

However, not all gas leaks are that obvious. A slow leak is usually next to unnoticeable. When you contact us for gas leak detection, we will look for any loose connection points near the wall or appliance. If those areas are secure, the leak could be coming from a hairline crack.

What Should You Do If You Have a Gas Leak?

All gas leaks, large or small, have the potential to cause serious damage. If you suspect a gas leak, leave your home immediately. Do not turn on any appliances or electronics, including your phone. Do not spark anything, such as a lighter or match. Once you are in a safe area, call your local gas company to alert them to the problem. They will dispatch a technician to check on the leak and may shut off your gas supply.
