How to Detect Gas Line Leaks
The most common place for a gas line leak in the home is where pipes join together at the fittings such as:
Old shut off valves
Tees
Unions
Flex lines
Regulators
Risers
These connections must be tight enough or the thread sealant becomes dry. Once that happens, leaks occur. Corrosion of black iron piping that is not properly protected from the elements may also leak.
Signs of a Gas Leak
Here are some signs that may either confirm or deny your thoughts of a gas leak. A sulfur type smell will be your first sign. Think rotten eggs, and there is your sulfur smell. If that smell is near a gas appliance or gas pipes, you may be very close to a gas leak. Many times women will have a better sense of smell than men. Is the smell constant? Where are you smelling the sulfur-like smell? If the leak is outside and underground, it might kill the grass over time. Being a detective can help reduce the time it takes for the professional to locate the leak. This will save you money and resolve the problem quicker.
Another common place for gas leaks comes after a new roof is installed. Corrugated stainless steel lines can easily be punctured by roofing nails when the line has been installed too close to the roof. This leak might become evident immediately, but other times it can take months for the leak to appear. If your roof has been replaced, it might be worth a visit from a Water Wise Plumber to check the gas lines as well as making sure that the water heater is properly vented to protect your family against carbon monoxide poisoning.
