Derek Cole explains that gas odors outside your home are the utility's problem, but inside means a pressure or valve issue needing professional help. Every home with gas appliances needs a carbon monoxide detector, since CO from combustion is invisible and deadly.
You should not be having a gas smell in your house or outside of your house. What happens in our business from the regulator to the house is usually our responsibility. Anything the other direction is the gas company. It's the LP company or natural gas, and that's their deal. They don't want us touching anything beyond that, and that's fine. So if you go outside and have that smell, You should turn the gas off. You have a gas shut-off, right? A gas shut-off, you should turn it off. Obviously, don't light cigarettes or don't use a lighter to see what's going on. That's not a good idea with a gas smell. That's going to cause a problem. Now, inside the house, again, you could be— it could be a gas pressure problem, could be a gas valve problem. You need to have— it goes back to what I just said— you need to have a maintenance done to make sure you're being operated properly because gas obviously is nothing to play with. And if you have any gas appliance in your house, whether it be a furnace or a water heater or a dryer or a stove, you should always have a carbon monoxide detector because that you cannot smell, that you cannot smell, you cannot see. Uh, but it is a byproduct of gas, so if you have gas in the house, that needs to be installed as well.
