Natural gas is incredibly safe when contained, but a system failure can be dangerous. Contact a certified professional immediately if you notice any of these five red flags in your home:
Because natural gas is naturally odorless, utility providers infuse it with mercaptan—a chemical compound that gives off a distinct sulfur or rotten-egg smell to alert you of a leak.
A persistent whistling sound coming from behind your walls, near your furnace, or near your outdoor gas meter points to pressurized gas escaping through a cracked pipe or loose fitting
If you notice a random patch of brown, dying grass or dead plants in your yard directly over an underground gas line, escaping gas is likely suffocating the soil’s oxygen supply.
A sudden, inexplicable surge in your monthly gas consumption without a change in your heating habits often indicates a hidden sub-surface or behind-the-wall leak.
Unexplained dizziness, nausea, headaches, fatigue, or breathing difficulties inside the house can be a sign of low-level carbon monoxide buildup or a slow natural gas leak.

For indoor lines, we primarily use traditional black iron pipe or flexible corrugated stainless steel tubing (CSST). For underground outdoor lines, we utilize high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic piping because it resists moisture, rust, and soil corrosion.
