We’re Emergency Gas Leak Specialists
Are you catching a whiff of that foul odour reminiscent of rotten eggs, signalling a potential natural gas leak?
It’s imperative to swiftly summon a certified gas fitter from Mr Emergency Air Conditioning to address the issue. Our services are at your disposal 24/7, every single day of the year, ensuring prompt assistance within just 30 minutes* of your call.
The presence of natural gas poses a severe hazard due to its high flammability, jeopardising the safety of your household.
While awaiting the arrival of our Mr Emergency Air Conditioning gas fitter, you can implement several precautionary measures to mitigate the risk:
- Shut off the gas supply at the meter; locate the conspicuously coloured handle and turn it perpendicular to the pipe.
- Power down all appliances, including electrical devices such as power outlets and light switches.
- Abstain from using fans or any other air-circulating appliances.
- Enhance ventilation by opening doors and windows throughout your residence.
- Strictly refrain from igniting any flames within the premises.
In cases of intense gas odour, it’s advisable to evacuate outdoors to prevent potential nausea or discomfort.
Tell-Tale Signs You’ve Got a Gas Leak
Did you know that natural gas is actually odourless? It’s true! But for safety reasons, a harmless chemical called mercaptan is added to give it a distinct smell reminiscent of rotten eggs or sulphur.
This distinctive scent serves as the primary indicator of a gas leak, but there are other crucial signs to remain vigilant about.
Additional indicators of a potential gas leak include:
- Unexplained patches of dead grass or plants near gas lines.
- Audible hissing or high-pitched whistling emanating from pipework.
- Presence of air bubbles in puddles above underground piping or at joint locations.
- Abnormalities in the pilot light such as flickering, weak blue flame, color changes, or extinguishing.
- Unexpected spikes in gas bills that cannot be accounted for.
- Sudden onset of illness among household members (further details on gas-related illnesses to follow).
It’s easy for these signs to slip under the radar. After all, who regularly checks puddles for bubbles or frets over a withered plant?
This underscores the importance of regular maintenance and servicing for gas heaters and appliances. With routine servicing and a compliance certificate from Mr Emergency Air Conditioning, you can rest assured that your family’s safety, health and security are prioritised.
How Dangerous is a Gas Leak?
It’s important to recognise that gas serves as a highly reliable fuel source for ducted heating, gas log fires, and various other heating systems. With proper maintenance, your heating system should operate smoothly without any issues.
However, it’s crucial to acknowledge the potential risks associated with gas. Leaking gas heaters, ovens, or hot water systems pose significant hazards. Not only do they jeopardise your health, but they also pose a genuine threat to your home, family, and possessions.
Exposure to gas leaks can manifest in various symptoms, including:
- Dizziness
- Headaches
- Nausea and/or vomiting
- Breathing difficulties
- Fatigue
- Throat and eye irritation
These symptoms often mimic those of a common cold or flu, leading them to be overlooked. Yet, it’s essential to remember that if you have a natural gas supply and experience persistent symptoms, a gas leak could be the culprit.
Prolonged exposure to gas leaks can result in more severe symptoms, including loss of consciousness, severe health complications, or even fatalities.
Furthermore, persistent gas leaks pose a threat to your property. Any encounter with a naked flame or ignition source could trigger a catastrophic fire or explosion.
Given the stakes involved, wouldn’t you opt for professional maintenance and repairs to mitigate these risks? Trust Mr Emergency Air Conditioning to ensure your safety and peace of mind.
