Gas Leak Detection

Gas leaks are often hard to find, and can go unnoticed if they are located outside, or in a ventilated area. You only notice leaks like this, if your bill steadily increases, or a gas-fitter tests your house for leaks. Usually it’s a loose fitting, or an older type rubber fitting that perishes due to wear and tear, in some houses build in the 80’s where PVC was used for the gas service, it leaks between the copper and PVC connection and can easily be identified and rectified.  

Other places you typically get gas leaks are at the control valve of old hot water systems, gas cook tops (control knobs for the burners) and old gas heaters. They are usually identified easily with a digital gas detector or by simply isolating the unit and retesting the properties gas service.

If you can sometimes notice a faint gas smell in your kitchen or in your cupboards, that’s usually a symptom of a slow gas leak.

If you can smell gas outside, have a look around your gas meter box, if you open your gas meter box and smell gas, that’s usually a good sign of a gas leak outside – Sometimes its normal due to rising and falling mains pressures, other times you may have a small leak.
