Safety Tip:
When a Gas Leak Is Detected
Although natural gas itself has no odor, gas companies add a warning scent to it, so people can smell a gas leak. If you smell natural gas in your home or office or a gas detector alarm goes off:
• Leave the building immediately
• Do not turn on lights, use an inside phone to call 9-1-1 or do anything else that might cause a spark
• Do not re-enter the building until given the all-clear by the gas company
Also remember to call 811 before you dig, the utility companies will come out and identify the location of your utilities, so you can avoid cutting a line.
