Gas Leak


[ch...]

Recommended Posts

Came home and after 15 minutes, noticed the house smelled like gas. I hadn't used to stove in weeks but when the gas company came out they said the burner knob had been cocked so that there is no flame but there is gas. This is so strange. I'm still trying to air out my house.

DAAAANG...HOW SCARY!

I WONDER HOW LONG IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN LIKE THAT?

DO YOU THINK IT WILL TAKE A WHILE FOR EVERYTHING TO AIR OUT?

I'M GLAD YOUR OKAY....

To actually went to bed and slept with the gas pumping out all night and had no idea until i went out my kitchen what the weird smell was all over my home or why  felt sicker than just benzos sxs, It never even smelt like gas. I was advised by the NHS on the phone to go to Hospital but being house bound with benzo sxs and still being alive and conscious I stayed home and recovered.

you might want to look by your stove behind it or on the side of it to see a shut off valve that should be on the natural gas line pipe  but um its dangerous to be around that gas leak just breathing it is dangerous . it woiuld be around $5 to buy a natural gas shut off valve from your local hardware store if your gas line doesnt have one by the stove. it would be best to instal it at where small connections are at so you dont have to cut any of that pipe . you'll just have to shut off the gas outside for a little while ,  while instaling this shut off valve . you'll need some teflon tape thats like .50 cents also to wrap at connectors . only thing is , you'll have to use the shut off valve each time to turn off after you turn off stove . you could find a USED gas stove for $30-$50 in your local craigslist or classified ads

Nova, I'm glad you're okay and didn't get more sick.

 

Babyangel, fortunately the gas has been shut off. Two gas leaks were spotted by the gas company and I'm going to have to hire someone to fix them.

Mine was some one leaving my gas turned on by accident and I never noticed as I had really bad pain and brain fog and just went to bed to lay down as there was nothing else I could do as we all know unfortunately ::)

Congrats on being so lucky. Gas is not only a potential spontaneous combustion but is also an oxygen displacer.
