How can you tell if you are experiencing a gas leak?

You can usually smell a gas leak. Natural gas is odourless, but the gas companies add a chemical that smells like rotten eggs so you will be able to detect it in case of a leak. Other signs that you may have a gas leak are:

  • A hissing or roaring noise coming from the pipes
  • Static electricity sparks coming from the outlets or appliances
  • The pilot light on your furnace goes out
  • Water boils rapidly on the stovetop even at low heat
  • Sudden changes in your gas bills
