Why Gas Leaks are Dangerous

Gas leaks are extremely dangerous because natural gas is highly combustible. A small spark from something as innocent as turning on a light switch can cause an explosion. Even if there’s no explosion, the fumes from a gas leak can be poisonous and lead to asphyxiation.

If you think you may have a gas leak in your home, it’s important that you leave the house immediately and call Absolute Plumbing at (972) 539-1180.

How We Detect Gas Leaks

The first step in detecting a gas leak is to determine if there actually is a problem. This can be done in a number of ways, but the most common is to use a handheld combustible gas detector.

Once it’s been determined that there is a gas leak, the next step is to locate where the leak is coming from. This can be done with a number of different methods, including:

· Tracing the pipeline with a camera

· Digging test holes along the pipeline

· Following the odor of natural gas

· Using a gas leak detector

Once the leak has been located, the next step is to repair it. This usually involves replacing the section of pipe that is leaking. In some cases, it may be possible to patch the leak, but this is not always the best option. If you have any questions about our gas leak detection and repair services, or if you need to schedule an appointment, please call Absolute Plumbing right away. We’ll be happy to help you.
