Gas Line Replacement in Albany, OR

Signs of a Gas Line Emergency

A defective or problematic gas line can jeopardize your family's safety. You should never delay in calling a professional for a gas line inspection if you think there’s a problem with your gas line. If you notice signs of a problem with your gas line, don’t ignore it or try to fix it yourself. Call our experts to schedule a gas line inspection. Being aware of these warning signs of a problem with your gas line can save lives:

• A rotten egg or sulfur smell.
• A sudden increase in your gas bill for no obvious reason.
• Dead vegetation or plants near the gas pipeline.
• A hissing, whistling, or roaring noise coming from your gas meter or gas appliances.
• A pilot light that won’t light or stay lit, an oven that won’t heat up, or a burner that won’t ignite.
• Bubbles in streams, ponds, or other marshy areas around your home.
• Huge flames when a gas leak ignites.

If you notice any of these problems, call the gas company immediately to shut off the gas service to your home. You can also call 911 if you believe you have a gas leak. Do not make the call while inside your home. Take children, pets, and other members of your household outside first.
