Common Symptoms of a Gas Leak
Do you suspect you have a gas leak at your home or property? Some symptoms to watch for can include an odor of rotten eggs around your property or hissing noises around your gas line. You should also watch for dying vegetation around your house or excess condensation on your windows. Also, watch for health issues within your household. If you notice any of these signs, call West Plumbing LLC to let our experts detect and repair a gas leak.

What To Do When You Have a Gas Leak
When a gas leak occurs, it’s essential to take the right steps to protect your family and household. First, you must immediately evacuate your property. When leaving, do not turn any lights on or off, and don’t light any flames. If you can, open the doors and windows before you exit to allow air to flow through the property. Avoid using any electronic devices - including your cell phone. You should only call for help once you are a safe distance from your house. When leaving your house, do so by foot and not via your vehicle, as starting your car could ignite the gas leak.
