What Gas Line Problems Should You Watch For?

Gas lines rarely fail without warning, but those signs are easy to miss if you don’t know what to look for. Strange smells, noisy pipes, or inconsistent appliance performance can all point to deeper issues behind the scenes. If something feels off, trust your gut and call a pro.

Here are a few red flags that something could be wrong:

• Rotten egg odor inside or near your home – That “sulfur” smell is an additive in natural gas designed to alert you to leaks. 
• Appliances that struggle to light or stay on – Blocked or weakened gas flow could be the cause, and it’s worth checking out.
• Noticeable hissing near gas lines or appliances – Escaping gas under pressure can create this sound—don’t ignore it. 
• Rust or corrosion on exposed gas piping – Over time, wear and moisture can compromise the safety of older metal pipe. 
• Unexplained increases in your gas bill – A slow leak could be allowing gas to escape without fully shutting things down.

If you’re seeing one or more of these issues, it’s time to bring in a qualified technician. We’ll identify the source quickly and walk you through your options without pressure.
