Common Signs of a Gas Leak

Dead or Dying Plants

Plants cannot grow and thrive in the presence of natural gas. If a gas line on your property is leaking, you may notice that plants in the area suddenly begin to wilt and eventually die.

A natural gas leak blocks a plant from receiving the oxygen that it needs, which can cause discoloration of flowers, fruit, or vegetables growing on the plant. If you have dead or discolored vegetation in just one area of your yard, it is a good idea to have your gas line inspected.

Pungent Smell

Natural gas does not have a smell on its own, but gas companies add mercaptan to natural gas supplies, and when these two gases interact it produces a very strong and pungent smell. This is done as a safety precaution to alert people to the presence of natural gas leaking into the air.

Many people say that leaking natural gas smells similar to rotten eggs or sulfur. If there is a gas leak inside your home, the smell may be quite noticeable. Outdoors the smell of natural gas may be fainter, but you should always call your gas company if you suspect that you smell gas.

Whistling or Hissing Sound

Natural gas is pressurized within a gas line, so when the gas line cracks or otherwise breaks the gas will flow out, creating a hissing or whistling sound. If you can clearly hear whistling or hissing around appliances that are powered by gas or near the location of gas lines, it usually means that there is a significant leak that needs to be repaired right away.
