Importance Of Gas-Line Leak Detection
For Homeowners.
A gas leak detection service can help prevent safety issues and save money on energy bills.
It is important to find and fix gas leaks as soon as possible because they are a major fire hazard. A professional must discover gas leaks so they can be fixed, and this is where an inspection comes in.
As diligent homeowners, you should always monitor the smell of gas; natural gas is detectable by the human nose. Detecting it is important before it reaches a level at which it could combust. If you feel you can smell gas, ensure occupants leave the affected area and contact the appropriate emergency response number of the fuel utility company.
According to the National Fire Protection Association, gas leaks are responsible for an average of 122 deaths and 603 injuries from 2010 to 2021 in the United States. Gas leaks can also cause explosions and fires, leading to extensive damage to your home and possessions.
What To Do In Case Of A Gas Leak?
Gas leaks can occur anywhere in your home where natural gas is used, including the furnace, water heater, stove, and dryer. Gas leaks can also happen if there are cracks or holes in gas lines. Even small cracks can release enough gas to harm you and your family. Carbon monoxide detectors are only designed to detect carbon monoxide fumes produced when natural gas burns. If you have a carbon monoxide detector in your home, it will not detect a natural gas leak. For this reason, it is important to have both a carbon monoxide detector and a natural gas detector in your home.

What Happens During An Inspection?
Service technicians for Gas Leak Detection in Gaithersburg use specialized combustible gas detectors to check for leaks in indoor pipe fittings, shutoff valves (excluding regulators), and supply pipes. The detector is sensitive down to 20 parts per million (ppm), making it ideal for detecting small leaks. There are a few different ways to verify that a leak exists, but the most common is to use a spray solution. This can be used to rule out false positives, which certain pipe joint sealants can cause. Once areas have been confirmed to be leaking using leak detection fluid, they are marked for later identification.
