Gas Leak Detection

Signs of a Gas Leak in Your Home:

• Strange Odours: The most common sign of a gas leak is the presence of a distinct, unpleasant odour. Natural gas is odourless, but gas companies add a sulphur-like scent called "mercaptan" to make it easily detectable. If you notice a strong, rotten egg-like smell in your home, it may indicate a gas leak.
• Hissing Sounds: Gas leaks from pipelines or connections may produce a hissing or whistling sound. If you hear such sounds near your gas appliances, metres, or pipes, it's important to investigate further and seek professional assistance.
• Dead Plants or Vegetation: Gas leaks can affect outdoor areas as well. If you notice dead plants or vegetation in your yard or near gas lines, it could be a sign of a gas leak underground.
• Physical Symptoms: Prolonged exposure to gas leaks can cause physical symptoms in individuals. These may include dizziness, headaches, nausea, fatigue, difficulty breathing, or eye and throat irritation. If you experience any of these symptoms and suspect a gas leak, evacuate the premises immediately and contact a professional gas leak detection service.
