Signs You May Need Gas Line Service
- You smell a rotten egg or sulfur odor inside or outside your home. Natural gas contains mercaptan, an additive that gives it a distinctive rotten egg smell, specifically so leaks can be detected by smell. If you smell this odor, do not turn any lights or appliances on or off. Leave the building immediately, leave the door open, and call your gas company and then us from outside.
- Your gas bill has increased without an increase in usage. An unexplained increase in gas consumption can indicate a small leak somewhere in the line that is allowing gas to escape continuously. Even small leaks waste significant amounts of gas over time and represent a safety hazard that needs to be located and repaired.
- You are planning to add a new gas appliance or outdoor gas feature. Adding a gas range, dryer, generator, outdoor grill, fire pit, or any other gas appliance requires a properly sized and inspected gas line installation. Connecting appliances to an undersized or improperly run line creates safety risks and performance problems. This work should always be done by a licensed professional.
- Your gas appliances are performing poorly or not igniting reliably. Inconsistent ignition, weak flames, or appliances that require multiple attempts to light can sometimes trace back to a gas pressure issue or partial restriction in the supply line. A technician can test gas pressure at the appliance and at the meter to determine whether the line itself is part of the problem.
